Music by DJ George Mina's Studio Grand Opening October 1 2012 in Chapel Hill On October 1st 2011 Mina's Studio will host a Grand Re-Opening Celebration to benefit Anna's Angels Foundation, which raises funds for Down syndrome research. The event will be held from 10:00am until 2:00pm, at their newly renovated studio located in the Galleria Shopping Center at 400 S. Elliott Road in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. In the spirit of giving back and supporting the local community Mina's will be celebrating children with Down syndrome. Proceeds from sales, raffle and auction will benefit the Anna's Angels Foundation, which raises funds for Down syndrome research at Duke University. This charity has special meaning to Mina's Studio with their accountant's son and their employee's daughter (as well as being co-owner, Alejandra Scott's niece) with Down syndrome. “This charity really resonated with us having that personal connection with Down syndrome and knowing this is benefiting local research”, said co-owner Alejandra Scott. To date Anna's Angels has raised over $825,000.00, which has ALL supported research here in our local economy. More info on event
