MannaFest and Unity1 Productions today announced their second annual free concert to benefit A.P.P.L.E. Inc., the Alliance for a Post-Petroleum Local Economy, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to preparing our community for the post-petroleum era that appears to be approaching us soon. Founded in 2009, A.P.P.L.E has become the focus of community action programs throughout our region. A.P.P.L.E envisions an economy that functions in harmony with our regional ecosystem, meets the basic needs of our residents, supports a just and democratic society and fosters a joyful, diverse community life.
The MannaFest fundraiser helps complete that vision for our community. Festival co-coordinators Victoria Bliss and Mary Padua Fischer had the vision in 2010 and MannaFest was born. We are also creating a non-profit production Company called Unity 1 Productions supporting and hosting local events to fund other community non-profit organizations. Most of our funding will come through sponsorships, donations and vendor spaces. Your support in this will be greatly appreciated!
Unity 1 is a production company committed to providing entertainment and information to the public though various forums and venues. There will be the organization of events and benefits for certain causes or non-profits. We have a strong involvement on a grass roots level with participation in public service and community activism to raise awareness and provide energy.
