Summertime Earth Ball 06/12/2010. Saturday. 8pm-2am. 21+. OPEN BAR $40 pre-sale TICKETS. $50 at the door. Beatnik Studios, 2421 17th Street, Sacramento, CA [map] R and M Events presents their inaugural Summertime Earth Ball, a benefit for CREE, featuring live rock with Robustitron and The Resurrection Men, followed by dance grooves with DJ Nuyo. This promises to be a stellar evening of great music, dancing, and uh... spirits (aka, open bar!) -- all for a great cause. 100 % of the proceeds will go to the Center for Rural Empowerment and the Environment (CREE, conservationforpeople.org), a Sacramento-based nonprofit that helps communities in developing nations pursue locally-led, sustainable development projects while simultaneously fostering environmental preservation. They have initiated projects all over Africa, Asia, and Latin America, including Kenya, Tanzania, Cameroon, Sri Lanka, the Philippines, and Guyana. This group is almost entirely dependent on public and private donations to achieve their mission, and so every dollar they receive goes extremely far in furthering their efforts. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit, your ticket purchase is tax deductible.
