Los Angeles, CA – November 27, 2018 – Twenty-Five time GRAMMY Award recipient and Oscar winner Stevie Wonder makes a special announcement about this year’s 22nd Annual House Full Of Toys Benefit Concert featuring the STEVIE WONDER SONG PARTY: A Celebration of Life, Love & Music at STAPLES Center on December 9, 2018.
“This year, the holiday season will not be joyful for some in our California family. Many lost lives, property, and dreams. Imagine a holiday after this tragedy. And so, this year, I am combining my Annual House Full of Toys Benefit Concert featuring Song Party, a celebration of life, love and music, with my House Full Of Hope,” said Stevie.
“Along with the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), our goal is to raise money in support of all those who suffered loss to the catastrophic fires, to support the amazing firefighters who worked so hard to save lives and homes, and to support the first responders who are always there when we need them.”
