HonduROCK Proceeds Benefiting Orphans

HonduROCK, a concert organized by Towson University branch of Students Helping Honduras, will raise funds to benefit orphan girls.

The money will fund the girls' move from lacking state-run orphanages to the Villa Soleada community, created by Students Helping Honduras, according to the group's Facebook Page.

"Over the past three years [Students Helping Honduras] has raised $150,000 for these projects collectively," wrote Elliot Glotfelty, an organizer, in an email. "This year we have set a goal to raise $40,000 for the construction of a girls' home, replicating the success of the boys' home we built two years earlier."

The concert, which will be one of the last at Recher Theatre, will feature Jimmie's Chicken Shack, The Lake Effect and other bands. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.

"These girls will gain access to food, clean water, a bilingual education, and the support of a housemother and 11 sisters," the HonduROCK event listing on Facebook states.

Tickets for the event are available on the Recher website.
