Peace Rocks

Next Monday, May 5, from 6 to 11 pm, Peace Games will host an exciting fundraiser at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York: Peace Rocks New York. The event will feature a "Battle of the Bands" featuring bands that all include representatives from a financial services organization: The Bang (Morgan Stanley), Invisible Men (Giuliani Partners), The States (D.E. Shaw), and Behind Closed Doors (Capital Rock Advisors). A celebrity emcee will oversee the program, which will include a cocktail party, raffle, live auction, and an opportunity to hear about the impact that Peace Games is making on schools and communities in New York.

You can find out more about it at www.peacerocksnewyork.com.

As you may know, kasina works closely with Peace Games, an organization that empowers students to create their own safe classrooms and communities by forming partnerships with elementary schools, families, and young adult volunteers. We believe so strongly in the effectiveness of their programs that our CEO, Steven Miyao, joined the board of directors of the New York City chapter and we have donated part of our office space to their New York staff.

kasina is also proud that one of the participating bands, The Bang, features client and friend Rich Brereton, who is Managing Director and Chief Marketing Officer at Morgan Stanley Investment Management.

If you are able to attend, this will be a great event - and you'll see a lot of kasina friends and family there, too.
