Dance the night away and make a positive difference for immigrants in Thurston County. Join Legal Immigration Services of Olympia (LISO) at the “Funk for Freedom” benefit dance on Saturday, September 26, from 6:30 to 9:30 PM. This all-ages event will take place at the South Puget Sound Community College Lacey Campus, with all proceeds supporting LISO’s mission to provide high-quality, free legal representation to local immigrants picked up and detained at the Northwest ICE Processing Center in Tacoma. 

Join the Groove: The evening will feature live performances by the 11 piece wildly danceable and fun Func Pro Tunc Band and Choro Tomorrow, Brazilian music from yesterday, today and tomorrow led by local immigration attorney Lisa Seifert. 

The entry to this fun, ALL-AGES benefit dance is by donation: pay what you can from $5 - $5,000. In addition, there will be delicious food from Nineveh and a variety of refreshing beverages as well as raffle tickets available for additional purchase/donation. 

There are quiet areas away from the music with comfortable seating for lots of schmoozing and connecting. And also a separate children's area with games, books and art projects.

Attached is a flyer about the dance where you can register for the dance and/or donate online. You also are welcome to simply show up at the door on Sat. Feb. 26 and join us. By registering you help us know how much food and drink to have available.
