BensGuitar.com announced that Leket Israel is its chosen charity at its fifth annual benefit concerts. The concerts will take place Monday, June 22, at Mexicali Live in Teaneck. Some 21 students from junior high and high school will perform in back-to-back concerts. The music will consist of a wide range of top 40 hit songs, and the young participants, having been selected based on ability and motivation, will be singing and playing on the drums, guitar, piano etc.

“The kids this year have put in a tremendous amount of effort into preparing for this year’s show,” said Ben Hyman, musician, music instructor and event producer. We’re very excited for this year’s concert and look forward to helping raise money and awareness for Leket Israel.”

“We want to thank Ben Hyman for choosing to support Leket Israel at this year’s charity concert. We know that the students have been working hard for many months to prepare for the performances, and knowing that they will enable Leket Israel to rescue more food for those in need as a result of the money they raise in ticket sales truly enhances the event,” said Joseph Gitler, Leket Israel Founder and Chairman. “We hope that the performers, their families and the attendees will volunteer with Leket on their future visits to Israel. Everyone can lend a hand in the various volunteer activities that Leket has to offer.”
