Cease Fire Fundraiser Dinner Dance Details



This is the very proactive, intervention-based anti-violence program that helped inspire this movement.

The program ran out of funding this past year and when that happened, violence increased in the main areas where the program operated. It's a proven model with results that clearly show a reduction in crime wherever it is implemented. It originated in Chicago and has made its way to other states around the country.

I'll be asking for assistance spreading the word about this event soon so I'm just gonna post this now so some info is out there.

I won't be asking for any monetary support from anyone. If you read about the cause, the program, and the effect it can have on our city and then you wish to donate to the cause, it is obviously going to be appreciated by an entire city of people trying to live in peace. But I do not wish to ask for the money in a begging fashion, I only ask that people spread the word about Paterson and contribute if they wish. 

The cause speaks for itself.  This is a chance to give to Paterson without sacrificing much at all.  Even if you do not wish to donate, spreading the word and finding someone else who can donate would mean just as much.

Every day, great people in this country are looking for a great cause to give to, give time, money, support, promotion, etc...  whatever it may be, the fact is, when push comes to shove, we as people feel good when we give to a good cause.

This event presents a great opportunity for anyone to give.  If the cause can be somehow be broadcasted across the nation, the rest will take care of itself.

We will also have the website updated with all the relevant information concerning Cease Fire and its history in Paterson and other cities across the USA. Any questions you have about Cease Fire will be answered hopefully and if not, we will find the answers so that anyone can help our noble cause while having confidence in our reputation.

For now, call the phone numbers on the flyer below for more information on tickets, advertisements, and sponsorship packages. This is going to be one of the most important events of the year for Paterson. If we stop the violence first, we can improve the rest of city in no time.

Thanks to all already for the support and I continue to be grateful for the people and relationships that I have in my life.

All the best to everyone and have a safe and great weekend!


We should have our PayPal account set up early next week for anyone to donate to this wonderful cause.  Stay tuned for more info and for now you can contact the numbers below for more information on advertisement and sponsorship packages.
