One hundred percent of the proceeds from Give 2013 go to the Vera Project. The music will be available for purchase at caffevita.com/GIVE2013, as well as at all Caffe Vita locations and Redhook breweries, with more outlets to be announced later this week. These locations will carry GIVE packages, including download cards for online redemption, perfect for Valentine’s Day gift giving. Caffe Vita operates seven Seattle-area retail locations, as well as two locations in Portland and one in New York.
A benefit concert featuring Jason Dodson of The Maldives, RA Scion of Common Market, and performances by Rainbow of the Can Can Castaways (with more artists to be announced in the next week) will be held at Barboza on February 13th. Tickets for the show are on sale now at thebarboza.com.
