Saturday March 26th, 2011 EcoJoia co-sponsored Falling Whistles and DVLP Clothing’s ‘Whistle Blowing for Peace Art and Music Festival’ here in Denver. 

An art show kicked off the day where local artists made exclusive art pieces with proceeds benefiting the non-profit organization Falling Whistles. Falling Whistles’ motive is to bring peace to Congo, with a focus on rehabilitating war-affected women and children. Falling Whistles turned the children of Congo’s only weapon, a whistle, into a symbol of protest to the war in Congo. Whistles were sold at the event with 100% of the proceeds benefiting Falling Whistles, as well as the EcoJoia Falling Whistles T-shirt.

After the art show everyone moved over to Summit Music Hall for the benefit concert. Bands PLACES, The Royal Heist, and Take to the Oars donated their time to play in honor of the Falling Whistles cause.

Festivities went late into the night, all for a good cause. Not only was awareness brought to Denver, but 100% of the proceeds of the t-shirts and whistles sold went to Falling Whistles to help end the war in Congo.
