Hayes-Costello said she wanted to do whatever she could to help support the Jackson clinic after she read the Newsweek article. "[The article] was something that really bothered me," she said.
Students were treated to a number of bands, including Jesse Cook, Kreation, Chad Stokes Urmston and headliner Kaki King. Alan Hague provided the crowd with intermission entertainment between sets.
Kreation has been involved with various fundraisers in the past and recently helped raise $400 for nonviolence education. In regards to the concert, band member Kirk Benttinen said they hoped to "raise consciousness and help everyone have fun."
"We both wanted to do this concert," fellow band member Earl Jones said. "We felt like we could really help raise money."
Audience reaction was positive throughout the concert.
"It has turned out awesome," freshman Kate Pisano said. "A lot of people showed up and the bands are awesome."
"I came here because Kreation rules!" sophomore Stephanie Zanati said.
Jenna Marcus, a freshman, was very happy with the atmosphere.
"People are really getting into it," she said, "and that's really what we want."
