Here's the answer I got back : Last year, 2006, 92% of donations were given to The City of Hope. The 8% used for the event went to things like stage rental, sound, t-shirts, printing. It's important to know and tell your donors that ALL organizers, participants, bands, DJ's, teachers, and performers are 100 percent volunteers. This is an honest to goodness charity event.
