CRN is a non-profit organization with a mission to offer hope and support to homeless children and their mothers. With TRÉ’s support and involvement, homeless children started the school year with books and school supplies. TRE’ performed concerts on behalf of CRN where admission was school supplies and brand new book bags, which were later, delivered to the children in the homeless shelters.
“Because of TRE’s enthusiasm and involvement, hundreds of homeless children and teenagers in the Metro-Atlanta and surrounding areas felt a sense of normalcy as they started the 2006-2007 school year. Thank you for being such a huge part of our 12th Annual Back 2 School Campaign.†Cliff Kinsey, CEO - Children’s Restoration Network.With a daily schedule that includes chores, home schooling, physical training, vocal lessons, dance class, writing sessions, recording at the family’s home studio and not to mention endless radio, TV and promotional performance dates, TRE’s tireless worth ethic is proving to be just the formula necessary to craft the world’s next teen hearthrob or budding ‘Young Prince of Pop’.
