Benefit concert organised for teacher who lost leg

Teacher Monix Hetemyer before the accident

A star-studded ‘Stand with Me’ concert has been arranged for this evening to help raise funds for the medical expenses of Monix Hetemeyer, the teacher who had to have her leg amputated in the aftermath of a car crashing into the restaurant where she was dining with a friend on the evening of February 20, in New Amsterdam, Berbice.

The concert will be held at 7 pm at the National Cultural Centre, and tickets are still available for purchase at the location this evening. The concert is being held to offset her medical expenses which are close to $1.6 million.
