Rocking Out In Rahway To Support Cancer

By Aqiyl Aniys | September 4th, 2015 | Modified - September 4th, 2015

Rockers are coming to Rahway to fight cancer on Sunday, September 13 at the Hamilton Stage at the Union County Performing Arts Center. The “Rahway Rocks” event is set to feature Mike Peters of the Alarm, Robin Wilson of the Gin Blossoms Pat DiNizio of the Smithereens and will be hosted by Saturday Night Live’s Jim Breuer.

The event is being put on to raise money for the rock ‘n’ roll cancer foundation Love Hope Strength, and the Delete Blood Cancer group. Mike Peters is also the co-founder Love Hope Strength cancer foundation and two-time cancer survivor.

The Love Hope Strength foundation does not fund cancer research , but instead uses its money to save lives in the moment. It uses its funds to purchase medical equipment and supplies for cancer survivors. It also uses it funds to build cancer centers, recruit potential donors to register to donate organs and bone marrow.

The donor drives at concerts have registered over 100,000 individuals, resulting in 1,848 potentially lifesaving bone marrow transplant matches.

The Rock The Skyline event will take place first on September 13, 2015 which will turn into the post walk evening acoustic fundraising concert “Rahway Rocks.”

Tickets for Rahway Rocks are $75 and can be purchased through Lovehopestrength.org and www.ucpac.org.
