Famunda All-Stars Set for Fourth Straight Concert to Benefit Pediatric Cancer Foundation


(Tampa, FL) – The Famunda All-Stars wouldn’t miss it for the world.

“We’ll be there,” said founding member Tedd Webb. “You can count on it.”

Webb was speaking of the fourth annual “koncert” his group of talented Karaoke-singing stars will put on to benefit the Pediatric Cancer Foundation come February 2010.

Dubbed “Koncert 4 Kiddz,” the annual event combines Webb’s singers with a silent auction in an extravaganza that raises funds for a very worthy cause. The 2010 performance will be the fourth straight year that the Famunda All-Stars have been the event’s fundraising linchpin.

The event will take place at the Ritz Ybor on Saturday, February 20, 2010, with the silent auction beginning at 6:00 p.m. In addition to the Famunda All-Stars, other celebrities and media personalities from TV, radio, and print will also sing.

Formed in 2005 as a group of singers and musicians who met informally to perform and spend time together, the Famunda All-Stars have raised over $26,000 for the Pediatric Cancer Foundation (PCF) in their first three Koncert 4 Kiddz events.

“There’s nothing better than using the talent you’ve been blessed with to help someone,” Webb said of the Famunda All-Stars’ association with the PCF.

Webb added that the Famunda All-Stars also constantly play clubs and other public events, both to raise funds and to simply perform and share their unique brand of music.

The February 2010 Koncert 4 Kiddz will be co-hosted, as it was in 2009, by Tampa television personality Charley Belcher (FOX 13 News) and Jen Holloway of Bright House Networks.
