Music for the Ministry is a charity gig aimed at raising funds for the Downtown Community Ministry, an organisation that helps those living rough on the street by providing them with shelter, food, medical care and much more.
In September of 2024, it was found that 464 people were living it rough on the streets. Compared to 330 in September 2023, that's a 40% increase, and it can only be on the rise with the current cost of living crisis.
6 bands have come together to thrash it out on stage and raise some money for DCM. Alongside the gig, there will also be food donation bins present at the venue! A list of what DCM needs for its foodbank will be posted in this event.
Come down to Valhalla on the 12th of July and put some money to a good cause and catch some of Wellingtons loudest noisemakers!
Before the gig begins there will also be a market at Valhalla from 2pm to help raise additional funds for DCM. Artists and stalls to be announced soon!
If you're unable to make it or would like to make further donations, please visit DCM's website at www.dcm.org.nz
