Special offers to Lang Lang’s concert to raise funds for Heart Kids
A special offer to Lang Lang’s one night only concert in Auckland is music to the ears for not only classical music fans but also Heart Kids.
The charity received 100 tickets to the superstar’s piano recital in Auckland’s Civic Theatre on the 12th of June. These tickets have been generously donated by Yashili NZ Dairy Company to Heart Kids as a fundraiser. Fans can purchase these Ruby-seated tickets, originally $299, at the special price of $250 with all proceeds going to Heart Kids.
Concert goers can expect to be treated to an evening of extraordinary music by Lang Lang, the popstar of the classical world. The Grammy® Award nominee has a phenomenal list of achievements, including being featured in Time Magazine's list of 100 Most Influential People and performing at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
Also, every ticket sold through this special promotion will go in the draw to get their ticket upgraded to VIP, including media conference entry and admission to Lang Lang's masterclass.
Yashili NZ General Manager William Zhao says it is a privilege to be able to help New Zealand babies who suffer from heart defects and the involvement of musical superstar Lang Lang made the company’s contribution to child health even more special.
“I can’t think of more important work than helping to make a difference to the survival of children in New Zealand,” says William. “I’m confident that this is the start of a meaningful and beneficial relationship between Yashili NZ and the champions of children at Heart Kids.”
Rob Lutter, CEO of Heart Kids said: “We are grateful to Yashili for supporting our work with their generous gift to Heart Kids. Funds raised from the tickets will help us to continue providing practical and emotional support to the 12 babies born with a heart defect every week in New Zealand.
“We look forward to working with the team at Yashili more closely to further raise awareness and funds for our Born Fighters.”
