Exodus Presents BAMM In Concert
by Caroline M ille r
M ultnom ah County Commissioner
In my role as a C om m issioner
w o rk in g w ith local agencies, one
outstanding program came to my at
te n tio n . A lth o u g h there were not
sufficient funds to provide for this
service through the C o u n ty, I felt
that som ething had to be done to
make it available. The service is one
proposed by T o m and Rosalie
Booth, who direct the House o f Exo
dus, an excellent social service
agenvy in the Albina neighborhood.
M r. and M rs. Booth have proposed
to work with youth that most agen
cies consider to be unemployable.
T h ey w ant to put these young
people to work in their own neigh
borhoods providing services to the
elderly. This project is exciting be
cause it deals with a population that
we often cannot serve and it helps
that population to feel that they be
long in and contribute to the neigh
borhood that they live in. As this
service is so im p o rtan t, I have un
dertaken an effort to raise funds pri
vately for this proposed program.
It is my pleasure to announce that
two excellent groups o f performers
have agreed to assist the House o f
Exodus Y o u th E m ploym en t P ro
gram by p e rfo rm in g in a benefit
concert. O b o A d d y and his ja zz
group, Kukrudu, will be performing
with the comedy group, Bamm, on
August 25th, at the Jefferson High
School Auditorium .
I would like to express my appre
ciation to these artists who are do
nating their time and talents as well
as to the m u sician ’ s union and
A F T R A for allowing their p artici
p a tio n . I am also very pleased to
acknowledge the support o f several
other community organizations and
