The Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall is partnering with Broadway’s Come From Away to support the American Red Cross.
Come From Away is a Broadway production based on the true stories of 7,000 passengers who were stranded following the 9/11 attacks. It’s a story of kindness during tragedy and how a small town in Newfoundland, Canada came together to take care of those who were stranded.
The American Red Cross responded stateside to the terrorist attacks of 9/11 while the Canadian Red Cross came to the aid of the passengers portrayed in Come From Away by delivering food, shelter, and support during their time of need.
This holiday season you can Give Something That Means Something in your local community. Gifts help those in need with immediate necessities like food and shelter and help put them on the road to recovery.
