press release: The Madison Area Music Association (MAMA) is pleased to announce the third annual Mama Cares Winter Ball to be held Saturday, Feb. 15, from 7:30PM to midnight at the High Noon Saloon. Formed in 2015, MAMA Cares is a program established to provide financial assistance to local musicians during times of medical hardship or family crisis.
For a suggested donation of $10, attendees will enjoy a night of local music featuring performances by Rare Element, Wurk and The Raine Stern Band. The night’s activities will be emceed by local personality, the rock and roll dentist, Dr. Chris Kammer. An auction and raffle will also benefit MAMA Cares with 100 percent of proceeds going to those in need.
The Mama Cares program began as a result of a benefit for local musician, Robert J.’s family, after his son was hospitalized for emergency brain surgery back in 2015. Since then, the Mama Cares Jacy Ray Fund has helped many musicians and their families and to date we have donated over $20,000.
MAMA Cares has also initiated a GoFundMe campaign with a goal of $10,000 to bolster the Jacy Ray Fund. Donations are being accepted at: https://www.gofundme.com/f/
