Harrisburg, PA – HACC students are “banding together” for the benefit of earthquake survivors in Haiti. The Student of Wildwood Activities Team have organized SWAT-Aid, a concert from 5:30-10 p.m. Friday, March 5, in the Cooper Student Center international room on the Harrisburg Campus of HACC, Central Pennsylvania’s Community College.
“After the earthquake a lot of students came to me asking if there was something we could do to help,” said Justin Mohn, a criminal justice student and president of SWAT. “It was good to see. The majority of performers are HACC students. We decided to model our event after Live-Aid and the Hope for Haiti benefit that was on TV – make a local version.”
On the schedule are band performances, single acoustic pieces, poetry reading and comedy.
Admission is $5, which will be donated in full to the American Red Cross for Haiti relief efforts. Proceeds from the sale of refreshments also will be donated.
For more information, contact HACC’s office of student life, 780-1159, or e-mail Adrienne Thoman at althoma1@hacc.edu.
