I cannot express how honored I am to have accomplished one of my lifelong dreams.

Within a group of friends who have a passion for the music scene, we formed a non-profit organization.

From casual gatherings to black tie affairs, CKCU has raised $10,000 in 2010 to give to breast cancer patients of the Kimmel Cancer Center.

We formed a bond within this group that is very similar to a family. It proves that the saying, "Your friends are the family that you pick" is very true. We've been though it all, and it made us into better people and a bigger family.

I personally want to thank all of the members, volunteers, and contributors to CKCU for making everything possible. I couldn't have done it without you. You all have worked diligently and have made this organization strong.

A very special thank you goes out to my mother, Mrs. Anita Matthews for sharing her story with us and giving me the chance to create an event that was based on an illness that isn't very easy for anyone to want to share.

Because we had so much fun, we have decided that we are going to do another fundraiser campaign in 2011 for a charity in Baltimore, MD.

We will be making the big announcement on December 4th, 2010 at our kickoff party at Club Orpheus located on 1003 East Pratt Street in Baltimore.

Please check out our events page for more info on this event. See you all on the 4th! This show isn't something that you should miss.
