Description
Can you imagine? 1,000,000 people, the populations of Oakland and San Francisco combined, already have or might die in Burma ( Myanmar ) as a result of Cyclone Nargis. 10 times that amount, up to 11,000,000 people have been left homeless in Sichuan province of China because of the earthquake.

Are you going to "help"?

Presented by AsianWeek, "help" is a benefit concert organized by Bay Area artists to provide aid to the devastated regions in Burma and China's Sichuan province. Performing at "help" are American Idol semifinalist Paul Kim, Burmese-American songstress Natalise, and local band Mud who will perform a rare acoustic set.

Net proceeds will be donated to UMCOR - The United Methodist Committee on Relief to provide food, water, and temporary shelter in the most devastated areas of Burma and Sichuan province.

Advanced tickets: $25/student and $35/general admission
$40/at the door - CASH ONLY!
