J.K.Rowling to attend charity reading in New York (updated) J.K.Rowling is due to attend a charity reading at Radio City Music Hall in New York in August. The event will be raising funds for the Haven Foundation who aim to help performing artists who have suffered illnesses or debilitating accidents that prevent them from working. Proceeds will also go to Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières, an international medical group that brings emergency aid to people in disaster zones. Jo will be joined by Stephen King [the found of Haven Foundation] and John Irving. Mr King explains in the article why he wanted JK present at the event; Quote:

UPDATE: Details about how to purchase tickets for this event can be found here. |
I love how Jo Rowling is so generous to charities. She's awesome. :) |
The event itself is already pretty big, but I agree, with Jo around it's going to get even more publicity. Which is great for everyone involved because that's a very meaningful cause to work for. I wonder what she'll be reading though? |
I love her! She is so nice!!! |
I am sooooo planning on going. She could read last week's newspaper for all I care, just to be in the same room with her. :faint: |
that is sooo awesome. |
