The link below goes to the mission statement for the Guacamole Fund --
don't laugh; they produced the MUSE concerts and tons of benefits for
large AND small organizations like our own. Bonnie Raitt, Jackson
Browne, Shawn Colvin and others like them regularly perform Guacamole
Fund-produced benefits, and the Fund takes care of the legwork and other
technical aspects of putting on a big benefit. They are also big on
working with community groups in local areas in staging them.

Pollstar just did a feature on their director, which is how I found this
group. From what he told our reporter, they are looking for groups that
sound an awful lot like us to help fund since Sept. 11. Please check out
the link below, and click around the rest of their web site. I think it
might be a good idea to Think Big and at least contact them to see if
they might be interested in a little ole group like ours. Let me know
what you think, and if it seems worth a try, I'll contact them.
