Dear Friends -

I am so excited to be hitting the road again this summer on the Girls Night Out Tour with Rosie O'Donnell, as well as a few shows on my own.

If you are attending one of the shows, we need your help. Food banks around the country are reporting difficulties in getting food donated and keeping up with the demand due to the current state of our economy. So, they need our help and it is really simple for us to do something.

We have partnered with almost all of the venues we will be playing and various food banks along the tour route to collect non-perishable food items. Below you will find a list of where we will be collecting items. So, please bring as much as you can to the concert. We will have volunteers and bins available for you to easily drop off your donation.

If we all join together and donate, we can make a real difference for so many families. So, please take part and donate what you can. I look forward to seeing you soon!

Warmly,
Cyndi

P.S. If you will not be attending one of the shows in August, please visit the Feeding America website to find a food bank you can drop off a donation at in your area!

I'm attending the show in Montclair, NJ, and would like to know what local food bank will benefit from the drive.

Today, there was an article about this in "The North Jersey Record" :
..http://www.northjersey.com/arts_entertainment/lauper072909.html..

In the article, Cyndi discusses the True Color House along with sharing the story of losing a friend who was kicked out of his own house.

On July 19th, one of my students, who was the president of my college's GLBT Student Association lost his battle with AIDS one month before his 26th birthday.

He lived in a shelter that offered support programs called Straight and Narrow in Paterson, NJ, just 10 minutes away from the Wellmont Theatre. 

If theTrue Colors Fund hasn't deceided what organization would benefit from the Montclair show's food drive please consider Straight and Narrow in Paterson, NJ, in memory of Jiovanni Rosario.

Thank you.
