BENEFITS
In 2002 ADPR put on their very first benefit concert for the Victims of the Tragic 9/11/01.
Stacy-who had lost friends in the attack-decided that she had to do something to honor the memory of her friends and help the families of the victims.
After contacting Mayor Bloomberg,with the help of Phantasy (Lakewood,Ohio) she organized her very first Benefit concert,raising over 2,000$ for the cause.
Since that day,Stacy promised that ADPR would organize at least one benefit each year-a promise she kept.
In 2003,the two night Benefit for Breast Cancer,was held at the Symposium in Lakewood, Ohio.
In 2004,ADPR and Adam Hines of the Phestur Band,co-organized the Benefit for Lung Cancer.
In 2005 and 2006,ADPR organized Musician's benefits,to give something back to the bands who supported ADPR's previous benefits.
In 2007 and 2008 ADPR assisted benefits organized by others,in an attempt to expand its network and offer more.
2009 was the year that the 2007 and 2008 efforts paid back,as ADPR organized 2 benefits and assisted 3 others!
Rock Across America and Dimes to Dollars were organized by ADPR and assisted ST Jude's Children's Cancer Center (twice) and the Benefit for Autism.
August 8, 2010 at The Cove ST. Judes Benefit was held and we were able to bring in 600 dollars for the kids.
In April 16, 2010,at The Cove ADPR Presented: Giving Back - The Musicians Benefit.
FUTURE PLANS
ADPR and OTA shall be working together next year to raise money for THE TROOPS as we take some time to get together bands and items for our men and women of the Army, Marines, Airforce, Navy and Coast Guard. More information to come.
