Red Eye Records (R.E.R) was first opened in 2001, in trendy Melbourne Area- Rose Street, Royal Parade. On August 25th, Founder Of R.E.R, Willow-Lee Styles had a positive outlook upon this business and was constantly inspired/determined to make R.E.R a place where everyone fitted in. By September 16th R.E.R had almost every genre of music, from POP to Heavy Metal and soul music. R.E.R goal was for everyone to feel like they felt safe or had a safe place to go to and music always has that escape, it makes you feel connected and gives you a sense of secure. Our customers were constantly saying you're helping this community but what about other communities who do not have this opportunity to have a shop like this one. These several comments pushed Willow-Lee to become determined to set up this website for everyone world wide to have access to. It also triggered a list of charities to explode onto our list of to do's. Now 14 years later and our record shop is still up and running.
Willow-Lee Styles, Red Eye Records (RER) Founder and owner, has not only managed to create a business where music is provided on vinyl records in all genres of music but has also founded many charities of which RER is a major sponser of all. 50% of all sales from our records go towards any charity at any given time. All Records have a set price of $30.00 so each time a record is purchased $15.00 is donated to a charity. Some charities we have donated to are:
-Millenium Promise -Halo Trust -Peace One Day -Care to learn -Vital Voices -Kids in need of Defence -Cancer Council -Reach Out -Direct Change -White Ribbon _Brave Hearts -RAINN -Wings of Hope - Save Suicide -40 Hour Femine - Water Aid -ASPCA -Pet Rescue -Pink Media -Minus 18 These charities range from Kids in need, World hunger, Domestic Abuse, Suicide Prevention, Animal Welfare/Abuse, Sexual Abuse, LGBT, and Water for all. |
