The evening is so popular that tickets for the show have actually sold out!” New Eyes’ goal is to raise awareness of their programs and to significantly increase the number of adults and children in the U.S. who benefit from this program. The EyeRock Band is comprised of musicians from throughout the optical industry. “The EyeRock Band, which began 15 years ago as a music jam with just a handful of musicians, has grown to over 35 musicians and singers,” noted EyeRock Band producer Steve Santinelli of Santinelli International. “The concert will be recorded and footage and photos will be available on the band’s website, www.eyerockband.com. We’re looking forward to coming together and playing for such a great cause. The band is delighted to be partnering with New Eyes—it’s a fantastic organization whose programs help so many disadvantaged people.” For more information about New Eyes for the Needy or to become a supporter, please contact Jean Gajano at jgajano@new-eyes.org.
