The Roots Perform At Hurricane Katrina Relief Show
The Roots and Jill Scott performed during a benefit concert for Hurricane Katrina relief at the Kimmel Center on September 16th in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. As part of the Kimmel Center’s hurricane relief efforts, The Roots donated their entire performance fee to the NAACP’s hurricane relief efforts on behalf of HurricaneHousing.org. Over 30,000 Katrina evacuees have been housed so far through the www.HurricaneHousing.org website. Over 250,000 free beds have been offered nationwide.
