In the long-heralded San Francisco tradition of supporting worthy causes, the house music community is responding to such shocking statistics as the fact that 95% of the 15 million children orphaned by AIDS are living in Africa, and is joining forces to make a difference around the world. This same community united last year in the first “For the Kids” which was inspired by “For the Love” (2002), an unprecedented community event that raised money to help Wert Terry, a beloved member of the community, in his fight against cancer and towards his daughter’s education.
This year’s “For the Kids” is presented by: Grayhound, Om Records, DJ Adnan, Dax Presents, Sunset/Pacific Sound, Raindance, Green Gorilla, Nitevibe, DJ Seven, Tweakin', Anon Salon, Opel Productions, Spundae, Cloud Factory, NorcalDJMPA, staplemusic, and SFbyDEF.
Artists include: Miguel Migs, Jeno, Garth, MRK (aka DJ Markie Mark), Ellen Ferrato, Adnan, Andy Caldwell, Rick Preston, M3, Little John, Tracy, Galen, Solar, Joshua, Monty Luke, TK Disko, Fluid, Late Night Sneaky (live), Antonio, DJ Seven, Nikola, Fil Latorre, and DJ D.R.E.
