Our dear friend Jonas Durante was recently diagnosed with colon cancer and is facing enormous medical bills that his insurance won’t come close to covering. Jonas is a dedicated husband to Daniela Paschoarelli and the father of two young boys who adore their dad. Jonas is also a gifted drummer, who has played at Blues Alley and other venues in the area. Above all he’s a blessing to the Brazilian Baptist Church of Washington, DC, with his time and musical gifts. The community is coming together to help his family with the sudden financial burden of a serious illness. Please contribute what you can by clicking on the Donate Now button below.
You can also help by attending a benefit show at The Grill From Ipanema on Sunday November 11th from 5 to 8m. Ten percent of all proceeds will go to Jonas’ family. The show will feature several DC-MD-VA artists.
Let’s help our friend Jonas!
