Join us for a concert to support Build for Unity, a community and multi-faith collaboration through Habitat for Humanity New York City. Build for Unity brings together people of all colors, creeds and communities to counter intolerance and build homes for local families in need.
In the midst of our current national divisions, when faith and ethnic-based violence makes regular headlines, it’s imperative for us to tell a different story—one of diverse people and communities uniting together in service to others.
In this spirit, we bring together musicians of various traditions and backgrounds to share in an evening of musical celebration, all in an effort to raise funds and awareness for this important Habitat for Humanity initiative.
