Title: Kendall's K-9 Cause
Post by brewcrew on Jan 20^th, 2007, 8:26am

Well, folks, The Empty Suits are at it again. We're trying to raise money to help our guitarist's family defray the cost of a service/companion dog for their 10-year-old autistic daughter, Kendall. The band is donating their time and talents (as we do for over 50% of the gigs we play - a commitment we made to each other when we formed), and you are all welcome to come out and have a good time! Here's the text of the flyer we've been sending around:
-----------------------------------------------

Let's have a good time as we raise money for 4 Paws For Ability, a non-profit organization that trains Service Dogs for children with Autism.

Autism is: at once invisible and yet all encompassing. A world of black and white, of joy and sadness. A world of silence and at times deafening with its screams. It may affect only one family member but it touches all. A world of open and closed windows, of opportunities gained and lost. Autism simply is what it is...
