SenDong All Our Love is a gathering of Fil-Am artists and musicians for the victims of Typhoon Sendong that hit Iligan City and Cagayan De Oro in the Philippines and claimed close to 1,500 lives on Dec 17.

The gathering is fundraising but also tribute to musician Chris Zamora, Filipino jazz guitarist extraordinaire and dear friend to many Fil-Am artists in Chicago. He passed away after suffering a massive stroke eight days before the calamity, on Dec 10. His Web site is http://chriszamora.com/about.html

100% of the proceeds will go to our beneficiary, La Salle Academy in Iligan City, which incidentally is Dong’s (as friends fondly called him) high school alma mater.
