The 16th annual Ernie White Band and Friends Christmas Benefit Concert is set to take place on Sunday, December 20, 2015 at The Grand Ballroom in Princeton Manors (formerly Cedar Gardens). The show is set to begin at 7 p.m. and will be located at 661 Route 33 in Hamilton.
For the past 15 years, Trenton’s legendary guitar rocker, Ernie White and his band have spearheaded this rockin’ Christmas concert with the help of local area musicians.
This annual event has raised over a $150,000 for local charities including the Hurricane Sandy NJ Relief Fund, Trenton Head Start, Mercer Street Friends, New York Times 9/11 Fund, Hamilton Elks Handicapped Children’s Fund, Casa, Contact (Suicide Prevention Hot Line), ARC Mercer, Boys And Girls Club of Trenton, YWCA of Trenton, Musicians of New Orleans Fund and Trenton Area Soup Kitchen.
Proceeds from the Christmas Benefit Concert will go to the Trenton Area Soup Kitchen (TASK), an organization which helps to serve community members in need. The event raised over $17,000 for TASK in 2014 and organizers hope to carry out the same goal this year.
Tickets to the event cost $25 for all ages. Kids must be accompanied by an adult. To purchase or for additional information, call (609) 931-9464.
