Seedlings: The Annual Benefit Concert for Ruby Bridges 5th Grade Science Camp

Ruby Bridges Elementary School’s annual “Seedlings” benefit concert is coming up soon! The concert will take place at 7pm a week from Saturday on January 28th at the First Baptist Church at 1515 Santa Clara Avenue in Alameda.

We are very excited that again this year the Seedlings concert will be headlining the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir, Daughters of Grace, our wonderful Ruby Bridges 5th grade students and other amazing acts. Here is a flier outlining the details for this event.

The Seedlings concert is the largest fundraiser of the year for Ruby Bridges Elementary, located in Alameda’s West End. Proceeds from the concert support the school’s efforts to take the whole 5th grade to a three day-two night science camp in the Santa Cruz Mountains. Many of families from Ruby Bridges are not in a position to be able to afford the nearly $300.00 per student fee for this life-changing camp.

If you are able, please support this event in any of the following ways:

• Purchase one or more tickets to this great event and come share in the joy of the evening.
• Purchase one or more tickets to donate as a scholarship for families who cannot afford tickets.
• Share this message with friends and with any interested community members, including those who might be able to donate raffle prizes and/or to serve as sponsors.
