A series of fundraising concerts is being prepared for couple, Richard and Roni Merk, who are currently undergoing medical treatments at the De Los Santos Hospital along E. Rodriguez Ave. in Quezon City. Richard, the country’s Jazz Prince, is having his right foot treated to avoid amputation, while Roni just had a colon operation.

Spearheading the project is jazz singer Jacqui Magno. “Richard and Roni are good friends to everyone, and they’ve always been so generous to others especially their needy fellow artists, doing fundraising shows for them. Now it’s everybody’s turn to help them out in their time of need,” Jacqui said.

On May 2, among the performers are Rico J. Puno, Pat Castillo, Judith Banal, Jeannie Tiongco, Romy Posadas, Colby de la Calzada, Boyet Pigao. Rudy Lozano, Ulysses Avante, Ding and Tek Faustino, Richie Ramos and Emcy Corteza of Poppin’ Jazz, Ali Sotto and again, Jacqui Magno.
