Background:
The primary goal of this event is to raise money and support for educational programming in New Orleans and to raise awareness about two key community issues - Education and HIV/AIDS. In the past two years, Hip-Hop for Hope raised over $12,500 for the MLK Charter School in the 9th Ward, and has featured in the annual Hip-Hop for Hope Benefit Concert hip-hop artists from New Orleans and around the country, including Lupe Fiasco, Baby Boy da Prince, Raw Dizzy, Soul Rebels Brass Band and many more. The organization hopes to continue expanding its programming each year, eventually reaching the level of other music festivals such as Jazzfest, Voodoo Fest and Essence Fest. If you are interested in getting involved, donating money or services, or sponsoring the event, you can find more information at www.hiphopforhope.org.

Information About Upward Bound:
Upward Bound is a federally funded program that works with low income and first generation college-bound high school students. During the academic year, students participate in weekday tutoring, mentoring and Saturday supplemental instruction classes. During the summer, students participate in a summer institute which incorporates arts, humanities, sciences and languages into a culturally relevant curriculum that give students an edge on meeting state standards and preparing for college. To date, Upward Bound has successfully ensured that 100% of participants graduate from high school and over 90% enroll in college. Hip-Hop for Hope's donation will be utilized to enhance Upward Bound's summer programming, staffing and additional performing arts and creative writing development, as well as providing speakers to discuss safe and healthy habits and promote HIV/AIDS awareness. Tulane University's Upward Bound has also started an annual summer talent show in which students are able to showcase their performing arts work.
