As you know, the Kanye West Foundation's 2nd Annual "Stay in School" Benefit Concert was held on June 11, 2009 in Chicago. This benefit was a huge success!  More than 3,000 Chicago Public School students were positively impacted by the combined efforts of Mr. Kanye West, the Kanye West Foundation and S.H.O.W.(Students Helping Our World) All contributions to the Foundation will help to sustain Loop Dreams, the signature program of the Kanye West Foundation, and help to expand this initiative into schools, and other community centers across the nation.
 
Again,  please help us "spread the word" by encouraging your colleagues and friends to support the Kanye West Foundation in this endeavor.
 
Many thanks for your continued support.

Marking An Unprecedented Collaborative Effort to Roll Back the Nation’s Staggering Dropout Rate

The Kanye West Foundation (KWF), founded in 2007 by the late Dr. Donda West, was established to help combat the severe dropout problem plaguing America’s communities. It is through the collaboration of community and corporate partnerships that the 2nd “Stay in School” Benefit Concert, taking place at the historic Chicago Theatre on Thursday, June 11th, was born. This is the first major event for the Kanye West Foundation since the 2007 passing of its founder Dr. Donda West, the mother of Kanye West.  It is also the first concert Kanye has performed in the city of Chicago in over a year. Kanye has invited several of his longtime collaborators to perform and help raise money and awareness for KWF.

Benefit concert tickets are available now.  Tickets start at $49.50 to $500 for the VIP Reception and can be purchased at ticketmaster.com .
