BE the Difference
A huge thanks to 4CTHEPOWER and Pacific Castle for having us cover the “BE the Difference” event! On November 7th, 2009 the Hacienda Center, located at 1605-1695 S. Azusa Avenue in Hacienda Heights, CA (on the corner of Colima and Azusa where the 99 Ranch Market is located) hosted a benefit concert event from 11am to 5pm for Glen A. Wilson High School.
The purpose of the event was to help collect donations from the community to support the school’s budget. Wilson High School enrolls approximately 1,700 students but has a significantly reduced budget this year. The Hacienda Center intended to host this concert with the hope that the local community will embrace Wilson High School with services and donations that will better the future of the youth.
The event was held in an approximate 25,000 sq ft. closed off parking lot pad located within the center.
The lineup for the concert event consisted of the following artists:
Kaba Modern (featured on MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew Season 1)
Gamblerz (World renowned B Boy group, Battle of the Year 2004 & 2009 Winners)
Vudoo Soul (appeared on American Idol)
Seriously (Winner of Kollaboration)
Clara Chung (Winner of ISA 09 JCPenney Schooled in Style Breakout Performer)
Various Glen A. Wilson High School Acts
100% of the donations that were made went to Wilson High School during the event! There was also a really awesome Meet and Greet with artists after the event!!
