By Aaron Humes: This weekend a pair of organizations are marking the 71st birthday of Jamaican reggae legend Bob Marley.

On Saturday there was a concert organized in Orange Walk by the Charitable Roots Foundation to support a young cancer patient.

It was held at the East Sports Center and featured Eljai, a Belizean-born reggae musician out of the United States.

This evening in the Old Capital at Birds Isle, Dara Cyber Home Theater presents the fourteenth annual tribute and food drive to support Joel Dara Robinson’s feeding program which operates out of his Dunn Street home.

There will be music and entertainment from local sound systems and Marley himself through archival footage.

Attendees are encouraged to bring groceries and canned food in support of this worthy cause.
