Proceeds from a May 30 Rob Base concert at Paradise Grill netted $5,000 for the Oak Orchard Riverdale Boys & Girls Club.
Oak Orchard Boys & Girls Club Unit Director Erica Kennedy said the donation will go toward the club’s annual campaign fund for kids and will be used for scholarships, daily operations and children’s programs.
Paradise Grill Controller Sandy Samsel said the restaurant has donated funds to the Boys & Girls Club for several years.
“We believe in the program,” said Samsel. “We’re a big supporter of the Boys & Girls Club.”
