As a result of the September 2009 floods, many families and commercial businesses have been displaced from their homes, many of which were destroyed. In Cobb County alone, nearly 1500 homes were affected, and many of those families are in need of assistance to begin rebuilding their homes.
To raise funds and awareness for the rebuilding efforts for the flood victims, Thirst Aid Live, in partnership with Trinity Chapel and Unite will host "Restoration" to also restore hope to the families and community at large.
What is Restoration?
Restoration is a free benefit concert featuring performances by several well-known artists who have agreed to donate their time to help raise funds to support the rebuilding efforts.
The concert will be held Thursday, January 21, 2010 from 7:00pm - 10:00pm at Trinity Chapel, located at 4665 Macland Road in Powder Springs, GA.
