a partnership between Exploring the Arts and Born This Way Foundation

[ViviLittleM 3]

Opportunity Description:

Through their two charitable organizations, Born This Way Foundation and Exploring the Arts Inc., Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett seek to empower young people – providing opportunities for children and teens to thrive as authentic individuals who are compassionate, creative, and bold.

In this spirit, Gaga and Bennett will leverage their 2015 CHEEK TO CHEEK live concert tour to highlight the good works of one exceptional youth-oriented non-profit in several select cities nationwide. Non-profits with programming and local staff in the following cities may apply for consideration:

Austin, TX (April 23rd, 2015)
Houston / Woodlands, TX (April 24th, 2015)
Concord, CA (May 28th, 2015)
Los Angeles, CA (May 30th + 31st, 2015)
New York, NY (June 19th, 20th, 22nd + 23rd)
Ravinia Festival – Chicago, IL (June 26th + 27th)
Atlanta, GA (July 29th)

The selected non-profits will receive:

A promotional table (and two on site volunteer spots) within the concert venue for the non-profit to showcase their work, share materials, and attract new followers.
Access to two VIP tickets including backstage Meet + Greet that the non-profit will auction online via CharityBuzz (the auction funds raised will directly benefit the non-profi, less a 20% fee to CharityBuzz).
Opportunities for local press coverage through the CHEEK TO CHEEK tour’s publicity campaign to “Showcase Local Charities that Empower Our Nation’s Youth.”

So now that Gaga's career is in the ****ters who are you gonna be a fan of ? Would you guys like to have a totally brand new female popstar to worship ? Somebody who embodies everything Gaga promised when she started before imploding in 2011 ? Somebody who is fun and for a change makes great music ? Who does not take herself seriously or sees herself as the second coming or a messiah ? Someone pretty for a change. Genuinely cool and street smart not some CPW princess who lies about her background and never struggled for a day in her life. 

WE have what you want. All will be revealed soon. You won't have to listen to ARTPOP anymore trying to convince yourself this garbage is good just because you need an idol.
