So, what is a Unity Jam for those who don’t know? A Unity Jam is a one-night event that unites organizations across all Greek councils, service and academic organizations. Money raised at these event has provided $1,000 to such philanthropies as the United Negro College Fund, the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, the Sept. 11 Fund and three scholarships. The event has grown to include organizations across the U.S. This year we hope to bring this event to Arizona State University and extend participation to the University of Arizona.

This year’s Unity Jam is scheduled for May 7, 2004. Preparations for the event are currently under way.

Proceeds will go toward reimbursement to participating organizations that contribute to the Unity Jam *Start Up fund. The remaining proceeds will be given to a charity or scholarship of choice at the discretion of participating organizations.

We will all be part of a large social event/fundraiser that unites people of all cultures, backgrounds and beliefs.

If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact our committee Chair, Aaron Almada, at Aaron.Almada@asu.edu. We hope to gain your support in this effort.
