FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 

LOCAL BAND FOR CHARITY TO BEGIN FAREWELL TOUR

Charity Case, For Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids To Stop Performing  

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – January 15, 2009 – Charity Case, a local not-for-profit band will embark on their “Blood, Sweat, and Cheers” farewell tour from now through June 2009.  Final concerts will be at frequented venues in the area along with a few feature performances around the Charlotte region. In their 8 years together the band has raised over $600,000 for Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids, a 501 (c) 3 charity for children who are terminally ill and chronically disabled. 

Charity Case has performed over 200 shows and began in 2001 as a radio “bit” on the syndicated Ace & TJ Show heard locally on Kiss 95.1 (WNKS-FM).   

“It has been the most amazing experience and we feel blessed to have touched so many people’s lives.  We have exceeded all of our dreams, done things many said were impossible.” stated Eddie Z, Charity Case guitarist and music director.  

“This started out as a radio ‘bit’ and it has become one of the most incredible experiences imaginable.  The band and crew is a special group of people who donate their time to make the dreams of children who are terminally ill and chronically disabled come true.  They are the true meaning of charity” said Ace of the Ace & TJ Show, Charity Case lead vocalist.   

Each year Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids takes a plane load of children who are terminally ill and chronically disabled and their families on a once-in-a-lifetime, all-expenses paid, dream vacation to Disney World.  Charity Case has been one of the main sources of funding for Ace & TJ’s Grin Kids since it’s inception.
