Join us in supporting fire victims: Tehachapi Cares – Concert for a Cause

When disaster strikes, our community comes together to make a difference. The Rotary Club of Tehachapi and Tehachapi Valley Recreation and Park District invites you to an unforgettable event that combines great music, delicious food and a powerful mission: supporting the victims of the Altadena/Pacific Palisades and Los Angeles area wildfires.

Join us on Sunday, Feb. 23 from 2 to 5 p.m. at Aspen Builders Inc. Activity Center, 410 W. D St., Tehachapi.

Tickets are $30 each.

Live music featuring Flashback and other incredible bands will be on hand, and food available for purchase.

The devastation caused by the recent wildfires has left countless families and communities in need. Together, we can provide hope, relief and long-term support. All proceeds from this event will be handled with transparency and purpose through Rotary's trusted channels.

The funds raised will be directed to Rotary District 5280's Disaster Relief Fund, ensuring they're used effectively where they're needed most.

1.️ Frontline support: Contributions will support critical agencies, including The Red Cross, L.A. Regional Food Bank and others actively aiding victims.

2. Rotarian Relief Fund: For Rotarians within the District needing assistance, direct financial support will be available through the Disaster Relief Chair, Mark Benthien, available at [email protected].

3.️ Wildfire Relief Grants: Rotary and Rotaract Clubs will utilize these funds to carry out service projects benefiting victims and first responders of the L.A. wildfires.

4.️ Long-Term Recovery: While immediate aid is crucial, Rotary is committed to providing sustainable, long-term support to help families and communities rebuild and thrive in the months and years ahead.
