beyond the classroom : HAITI RELIEF CONCERT

February 3rd, 2010 § Leave a Comment

On Thursday January 28th the Zamni UNCG event took place. Live music and entertainment filled the Sullivan Auditorium along with hundreds of faculty and contributors coming together to make a difference. A silent auction took place outside of the auditorium with prizes such as Zulu ceramic vases, Haitian drum art pieces, a plane ride over Greensboro, and much more. IIDA donated IARc’s services by sending a student design consultant to the winner’s home and offer advice to redesign a room in his/her home. All of the prizes were impressive and created a buzz , and all proceeds of the event went to Partners in Health (www.pih.org). In less than a week, the department of Anthropology, along with all other departments volunteering raised $42o7.50! It was a great success and such a blessing to be able to help out those in Haiti suffering from the Earthquake.
