ANI SIGNS ON FOR WORTHY CAUSES

 

Fans attending Ani’s Birmingham, AL performance this Saturday will have a chance to enter a raffle for an autographed copy of Verses to benefit the Alabama Birth Coalition. The Alabama Birth Coalition is trying to get legislation passed that would legalize Certified Professional Midwifes in Alabama. Right now, women who want home birth in Alabama have to do one of three things: drive to a neighboring state that offers legal recognition, hire a midwife who risks prosecution and whose training may be questionable, or birth unassisted. So before you stand in the long line for beer before the show, visit the Alabama Birth Coalition table and buy a raffle ticket for your chance to win and support a great cause. 

Not going to the show in Birmingham? You can still support a great organization and place your bid on a beautiful Alvarez guitar autographed by Ani and a personalized copy of VersesThe Institute for the Musical Arts (IMA) in Goshen, MA was co-founded 20 years ago by June Millington, the guitarist for the all-female band Fanny, to ensure that girls and women have access to all aspects the music business, especially performance.
