...29-95: What are some other charities to which you hope to contribute through this event?
...I haven't thought too hard about that one except to essentially rule out arts organizations. Not that I don't love them! But I want the money from these shows to go to truly underprivileged people and animals.

A suggestion.
Rather than toss out arts organization why not consider arts organizations that have on-going programs for underprivileged youth.
Project Row Houses in Houston's third ward is an example. They are an internationally recognized arts organization and Community Development Corporate :: BOTH :: and they are a Not-for- Profit organization - 501(c)(3).
Their arts programs for children are just excellent and they need the support of the community.
They also own a historic performance venue for concerts.
Project Row Houses is not just another single silo arts program. They have many different programs.
