Storyville just opened up a new division called Storyville Live where I work as a Concert Producer. The respect for International Justice Mission is the main drive behind the launching of the new division of Storyville Live in Orlando. As a Concert Producer, I am kick-starting a series of nationwide, at-home concerts that will serve to spread awareness about the 27 million men, women and children who are currently slaves on our planet. The concerts are designed to be as hassle free for a potential host as we can make it; we literally do all of the legwork. Storyville sends out the invitations, handles the ticketing, provides the food and coffee, puts on the show, sets up and cleans up. We even send out thank you notes to your guests after the event. When it’s all said and done, it will look like Storyville wasn’t even there, except you and your guests would have gained an experience, an education and a way to make a difference to the lives of 27 million people. At no point in the evening do we ever ask your guests for money, a donation or even a commitment to IJM. There will be a retail section for guests interested in purchasing coffee and coffee hardware—from which 100% of the profits goes directly to IJM. As for the musicians who have signed with us, they are acoustic singer/songwriters in the same vein as John Mayer. These talented musicians have written songs for the likes of Faith Hill, Garth Brooks and Eric Clapton. Dave Wilcox has joined ranks with our roster of troubadours impassioned for IJM’s mission.

If anyone would like to receive a super cute booklet (designed superbly) that paints a picture of what I’m talking about, please email me at: IIbanez@Storyville.com. I’m looking for wonderful folks who love coffee, music and the mission of IJM (IJM.org).
