DJ EKIN AND WINKY WRIGHT HOST FUNDRAISER


Ekin “DJ Ekin” Hack (WBTP 95.7 FM The Beat) will host a launch party for his non-profit Conn-X-ions alongside Junior Middleweight Champion boxer Winky Wright.

Conn-X-ions is dedicated to motivated teens and young adults to be agents of change in their community, Hack said.

“I feel like I have been given that shot [in life] because someone thought I should have it,” Hack said. “I care because somebody cared about me.”

Reaching out to young people and supporting Hack is something Wright was eager to step up and do.

“Whenever I’ve needed something, he’s always been there for support me,” said Wright. “People should come out and support because everybody has a child, a cousin or nephew that gets out of hand. And if you can come and support then that kid can be reached.”

Conn-X-ions Launch Party featuring Winky Wright; 10 p.m.; Dolce Vita Dinner and & Movie Lounge (inside the IMAX Movie Studio), 615 Channelside Dr.
