Allison Williams is best known as one of the leads from the hit-show Girls, but she's also an ambassador for the charity Horizons National, a organization that helps fund and provide summer activities, including music programs, for kids of under-served families. Now she's tapped some friends from the EDM community to help her.According to Williams's Instagram, the dance music promoters Insomniac are helping to raise funds to bolster Horizon's music programs. "That's a quick way to my heart," Williams wrote. "A music video got me an audition for Girls. I have such faith in music's ability to alter one's path in life and jump over boundaries." To raise the money, Insomniac, the organizers of the Electric Daisy Carnival happening this weekend at New York's Citi Field, are giving a portion of the proceeds to Horizons National.The initiative was helmed by Pasquale Rotella, Insomniac's founder and CEO who also has a show on the organization's Night Owl Radio. "Proud to support Horizons National, who provides tuition-free summer education for youth." he wrote on his Instagram, adding a special note of gratitude the headliners.Learn more about the Horizons National charity here.[Update May 14, 3:30pm: A previous version of this article incorrectly stated Insomniac's name as Insomniac Events. The article also stated that Insomniac had teamed up with the organizers of Electric Daisy Carnival when Insomniac are the organizers. The article mistasted Pasquale Rotella's gender as female and mentioned that he was a DJ for the organization when he is in fact its CEO and founder.]
