This year we are excited to host “The Soul of Rotary District 5280,” our first benefit concert to raise funds for The Rotary Foundation. The afternoon will be filled with incredible jazz and reggae music, featuring the Charles Small Jazz Quintet, Juan Carlos Quintero and his Latin jazz quintet, as well as One Drop Redemption (Bob Marley’s original tribute band featuring an original Wailer on vocals). It will be held at the 1,400-seat concert hall, The Novo at LA Live, on Sunday, November 20th at 1:00pm.
The Soul of Rotary District 5280 benefit concert begins with a fabulous VIP pre-party (invite only for sponsors) complete with cocktails and delicious food curated by Wolfgang Puck, silent and live auction as well as raffle opportunities, followed by a spectacular jazz and reggae concert. Backstage access and a Meet & Greet with the musicians round out this spectacular, not to be missed event.
The Soul of Rotary District 5280 brings Rotarian standouts, friends, and community partners together for an afternoon of camaraderie and most importantly, fundraising for The Rotary Foundation. Concurrently, we are reaching out to our local business community to support the Rotary District 5280 TAY Training Program (Transitional Age foster care Youth).
