Benefit to Help Illinois Homeless Veterans

HELP ILLINOIS HOMELESS VETERANS
The patriotic spirit to help our homeless Veterans will certainly be soaring during the Brass from the Past’s February 9th benefit concert taking place at the Ye Olde Town Inn, 18 West Busse Avenue, in downtown Mount Prospect.

The Brass from the Past band has joined with former Marine and Ye Olde Town Inn owner Tod Curtis in a flag raising effort to raise money that will make a lasting and noticeable difference  in the lives of some homeless Veterans in Illinois.

For a modest donation admission of $5.00, Curtis and the Brass from the Past promise to reward benefit goers for doing a good deed with a night of good music, good food and plenty of fun starting at 7:00 pm with a free all you can eat pizza buffet followed by Brass from the Past taking the stage at 8:00 pm.

Donations from the February 9th benefit will be turned over to the nonprofit humanitarian aid organization United Relief Foundation to help their efforts in providing essential care and permanent housing for Illinois homeless Veterans.
