Shout it from the rooftops!! Pitbull is coming to perform in Casa de Campo – and not only that, he is also doing it to benefit the Hogar del Niño!
Xiomara Matos, President of the Hogar del Niño, was thrilled and excited to announce the charity concert to casadecampoliving.com yesterday. “Pitbull is coming”, she told us, which following a brief moment of realisation, was followed by shrieks of joy from both Xiomara and myself! What wonderful news!
“This will be 100% in support of the Hogar del Niño, our School and facilities, we are very grateful with Mr. Worldwide, whom from the first day he went to “Hogar” felt he needed to do something on behalf of our kids and has been since then trying to pull this one together. Huuurrahhh for Pitbull! and see you all at the Best Concert Ever!”
— Xiomara Matos, President of the Hogar del Niño
In telling us all about the upcoming show, Xioma also expressed her gratitude to Alejandro Lima, who grew up in Casa de Campo, and who is actually helping the Hogar del Niño to coordinate the event with Pitbull.
As the event was literally only just officially confirmed yesterday, we will have to wait for news of ticket prices and other details. But for now – save the date!
