Andrew Warde High School graduates Jerry Vigorito (1976) and Rob Fried (1977), founding members of Band Together, partnered with the Fairfield Theatre Company and state representative Tony Hwang to stage a successful “Concert for Haiti” last Saturday night in Fairfield.
All of the show's proceeds were directed to the Connecticut chapter of the American Red Cross for Haiti relief. Vigorito emphasized that there are many Haitian families living in Fairfield County.
"It was such an honor to team up with Tony Hwang and all of you who made this concert a great success," said Vigorito. "To help contribute, please contact the Red Cross at redcross.org to help with this great need."
"You guys are the best," wrote one concert-goer. "You guys really captured the feeling of the event for everyone to share. Thank you all for helping out our efforts, the Red Cross, and most importantly the people of Haiti."
"Band Together is such an amazing organization," added another fan. "(They are) such an inspiration for others to begin making a difference."
Congratulations to Jerry, Rob, and everyone who played a part in such an inspirational and successful evening.
