The Public is invited.
Torres has a singing career spanning over three decades and a radio hosting career with NY WKTU (103.5 FM). Her notable performances include Radio City Music Hall and Madison Square Garden, and sharing stages with Gladys Knight, Lionel Richie, Tito Puente, Jerry Rivera, Deborah Cox, and Taylor Dayne.
Proceeds from the event will benefit the Staten Island Giving Circle’s “Weekend Food Backpack Program,” which offers food to disadvantaged students on holidays, weekends, snow days, and vacations. Backpacks containing beans, rice, pasta, sauce, cereal, granola bars, canned fruit, and more are handed out to students each Friday and returned on Mondays. This ensures that students have enough food for the weekend and helps them stay focused and energized for the upcoming week. The Staten Island Giving Circle is dedicated to providing a safe and positive environment for disadvantaged students to achieve their academic and life goals.
