WARREN, NJ -- November 17, 2009 --
WHAT: To mark National Homeless Youth Awareness month, the reunited rap
group Public Enemy, featuring Flava Flav and Chuck D, will be
touring Sasha Bruce House to meet more than 30 homeless youth and
hosting a Thanksgiving dinner to kick off the season of giving.
It's estimated that there are 2 million homeless youth in America.
Following the tour and dinner, Public Enemy will board a flat-bed
truck en route to Lisner Auditorium for a performance -- and they'll
play along the way for people in the street to hear. Concertgoers
who donate a new or gently used coat to Serve DC's "One Warm Coat"
initiative will receive a V.I.P. upgrade, as available. Public
Enemy will also invite the homeless kids staying at Sasha Bruce
House to attend the evening's concert as their special guests.
Sponsored by Virgin Mobile USA's (NYSE: VM) Re*Generation
initiative to help homeless youth, all proceeds from concert
ticket sales will benefit the Sasha Bruce House.
