The Leadership and Literacy Foundation, a non profit organization created to promote community and corporate literacy education and training initiatives, is partnering with Boston-based hard rock band, Godsmack to raffle off eight tickets to their sold-out concert at Boston’s Orpheum Theater on Wednesday, November 26, 2003 at 8 p.m. The band is also providing an exclusive lunch with bass player, Robbie Merrill for the lucky winners. Raffle tickets for this event go on sale on Friday, October 24 through Thursday, November 20, 2003 and can be purchased by calling Melissa Hubert at 978-682-5553.

“Robbie Merrill is a wonderful supporter of the work we’re doing at the Foundation,” says Susan Leger Ferraro, Founder and Chief Curiosity Officer for the Leadership and Literacy Foundation. “We’re so excited to reach out to the late teen and college crowd with our messages. Using Godsmack and Robbie to open the door and speak to this market will enable us to further extend our messages of independence, knowledge and civic responsibility to an audience that is at a critical time in their lives. The choices they are making now in their careers, educations and personal lives will have lifelong impact.”
