Partnering with 88rising this year are event promoters GoldenVoice and The Bowery Presents. 88rising will also donate $1 per ticket to nonprofit Heart of Dinner, which addresses food insecurity and isolation experienced by Asian seniors — two issues that have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
