Non-profit needs your help! Needs SPONSORS


A-List For A Change Non-Profit/Pro-Change Organization

http://www.myspace.com/alistforachange

Focusing more on my “A-List For A CHANGE” Non-Profit Organization! This past week around 4 teens emailed me w their problems…screaming for help! WE need to make a change; we need to stand up for those who cant stand; we need to help & inspire our YOUTH and help empower their parents (especially single parents.) WE MOST IMPORTANTLY need to keep our kids off the streets where the only influences they get can ruin their lives!

IM ONLY ONE WOMAN & I, too am a single parent. As much as I would LOVE to be able to do everything on my own, I struggle too…I have kids too. And TRUST ME…Im far from rich! While most ppl have a spouse or significant other to help them with their bills and more, I have NO ONE…not even a grandma to babysit! So with this being said, Im asking everyone to help me make a difference.

Everyone who knows me personally or who has been following my career online KNOWS that I am genuine and sincere about helping the youth and PEOPLE IN GENERAL. Everyone who knows me personally knows that Im not flashy, dont drive in expensive cars or live in a mansion. I live very humbly and am very comfortable with that. Im not a materialistic person and rather help others than to spend $200 on a purse! I say this because I KNOW THERE ARE TONS OF CON ARTISTS; tons of people who use fundraisers/non-profit causes to benefit their own pockets. With me, you dont have to worry about that. Im blessed already and just need help in blessing others!

One thing about me that you must know is that I dont do things for the money. For the 2 years that I have been in the industry, I have offered my services pro bono! I have promoted, connected and helped without charging a dime. Most people say that my downfall is my big soft heart but I feel as tho that is my strong point because I KNOW God will reward me in different ways.

How can you help? It would really help if people/sponsors can donate at least $10 or more to help get this 501c3 license. I have all the necessary license but need a 5013c which costs $$$. Im willing to do all the paperwork myself (which so far has taken me about 4 hours and Im still not done) but I just need help in the filing fees and other fees associated with the 5013c. A-List For A Change Non-Profit Organization is already registered, licensed and all that great stuff but in order for us to operate better, we need the 5013c.

For businesses, entrepenuers, artists, producers, etc… in return, I can add you to A-List’s newsletter, which will be blasted to over 10,000 ppl (around 4-5k in Atlanta alone) and over 70,000+ fans on myspace alone worldwide. For those who just want to donate, we appreciate you and always know that God will reward you for your great deed.

Donations can be sent via

paypal to alistmegaproductions@gmail.com (Credit cards, debit cards & echecks) If you dont have a paypal account, please let me know & I will send you an invoice.
money orders or cash (send cash at your own risk & be sure to leave a note with your email address) C. Cruz

For those who want to take advantage of our newsletter blast, after making a donation, please email a.list.talent@gmail.com with any promotional ad (flyers, banners, website info, etc…)

Thank you for taking this time to read this long blog. Im sorry that I probably rambled but its early in the morning! lol

LET’S MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THIS WORLD…STARTING WITH OUR YOUTH!!!

Respectfully yours,

Connie Cruz

FootworKINGz




FootworKINGz = SPECIAL GUESTS of Shorties Wanna Live: a youth concert promoting unity & peace in conjunction with Chicago tween entertainers, The Brown Boys' debut album release! Sunday, December 6th @ IIT Campus, McCormick Auditorium 4-7pm

Get your tickets, now, so you can witness, first-hand, the electrifying movements of Chicago's own, FootworKINGz! www.TheBrownBoys.ws

The FootworKINGz (FWK) is an all-star ensemble featuring Chicago’s top footworkers. These young men range from ages 16-24 and represent the essence of strength, raw talent, extreme energy and power!

FWK was founded in 2007 by Leida “Lady Sol” Villegas, as a professional dance ensemble
with a mission to attract global recognition to Chicago’s unique style of footwork. Footworkin’ is an extremely energized, lower body movement that evolved as a response to House and Juke (a highly sped up House sound up to 160bpm) music.

FWK members King Charles & Prince Jron recently toured on Madonna’s “Sticky & Sweet” World
Tour 2008-2009. Both are featured in Madonna’s new music video “Celebration.” FWK members have also appeared as a Top 20 act on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent,” Season 4, Ellen Degeneres’ Really Big Show ‘07 for TBS, VH-1 Hip Hop Honors ’07 with Missy Elliott, and MTV’s “My Block Chicago.” They have been featured in the Chicago Tribune, Cover of Red Eye Paper, NBC 5 Morning News, Rolling Stone Magazine and
Verizon Wireless “Do The Juke” phone commercial.

In October 2009, FWK released “Take Flight,” the first, quality DVD about Chicago’s “footwork” style that documents the development of the FootworKINGz project. “We are very excited to release this extraordinary mini-doc and present these incredibly talented young men to the world,” states Ms. Villegas, Manager of the FootworKINGz.

FWK has been featured on local and global stages including New York’s Lincoln Center HH
Generation Next 09, Chicago’s “Looptopia 08,” Juste De Bout 2008 in Paris, Aids Run / Walk
Chicago ‘08, Chicago’s Navy Pier, Steppenwolf Theater with Kuumba Lynx, McDonald’s
World Wide Convention in Orlando, Weber State University in Utah, San Francisco Hip Hop
Dance Festival, Best of Dance Chicago, and Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas.In this photo: Christopher Maddog Thomas, FootworKingz Dance, Charles Parks, Jaron Boyd, Kenny Tyreese Footwork Livingston, Tee Jay, Brandon Love, Aaron Ag Neal, Kemo Sanders, Kendall Larkin
