Rockers in Relief was a huge success, raising over $144,000 for disaster relief! NECHAMA staff and volunteers spent the night chatting with guests about the impact of our work, taking photos of guests in front of the lovely step and repeat banner, all the while rocking out to a night full of music. Fun was had by all! A big thank you to Amy Nielson, Carl Schwartz, Ameil Sloley and David Lowenfeld. Thank you to our volunteers who showed up to help pull off such a great event! We could not have done it without you all of you!
