Help JME raise money Memorial Weekend (May 28 – 31, 2010) to send students to the Kidult youth leadership conference in New York City

We need your help to spread the word. Jr. Music Executive is raising money to send at least 50 Philadelphia area youth to critically acclaimed rapper and producer Pharrell William’s Kidult Youth Leadership Conference in New York on June 26, 2010. This conference will motivate students from several area youth organizations (Jr. Music Executive, The Blues Babe Foundation, D.A.S.H. Program at Philadelphia Center for Arts and Technology, Dollar Boyz, J&R Grassroots, and others) to be the future leaders that Philadelphia needs. The conference is an all-day event packed with interactive sessions, amazing speakers, a mentoring lunch, conference expo, mixer, and music showcase. Speakers include Pharrell Williams, Mimi Valdes, Ayana Byrd, Hezekiah Griggs, III, Daniel “Diggy” Simmons, Akiba Solomon, Datwon Thomas, and many more. Media partner Global Teen Talk will select students to attend and document the journey. Registration, transportation, and additional fees will cost well over $5,000 and Villa has stepped in to help with “Shop for a Cause”. During Memorial Weekend (Friday, May 28th to Sunday, May 31st) shoppers can use the SHOP FOR A CAUSE COUPON to receive a 10% discount on their purchase and Jr. Music Executive will receive 10% of the sale as a donation towards the expenses for the trip. So this holiday weekend shop for a cause.
