The 3rd Annual Punks for A
Princess concert is now a THREE-NIGHT affair this year, and proceeds
will benefit the children of A Wish Come True!
Punks for a Princess is a
nonprofit charity organization started in memory of 7-year old
Kaitlyn Ferra, who tragically passed away on August 7, 2008.
Whether it be at home, at school, on the playground, or in
scouting, Kaitlyn was always the first to lend a helping hand
to any child in need of a friend. That’s why this
year, in honor of Kaitlyn’s loving nature, Punks for a
Princess has teamed up with A Wish Come True!
September 3rd and 5th, the
concerts will be held at Club
Hell in Providence, while Saturday's show (September 4th)
will take place at The
Beachcomber in Quincy, MA!
More information, as it
becomes available, on the bands and tickets can be found on
the Punks
for a Princess website, as well as the site for Club
Hell.
