The 35-year-old DJ (whose real name is Adam Goldstein) has been "a close friend ... for many years," organizers said in a statement. "We owe him a debt of gratitude that we can never repay, but we hope this helps just a bit."
The bash – to be held Oct. 14 at Avalon Hollywood – will include performances from celebrity DJs, including Mark Ronson, Steve Aoki, Danny Masterson and Mixmaster Mike.
Tickets (available at Wantickets.com) cost $20 – with proceeds going to the memorial funds established crash victims.
The Sept. 19 crash claimed the lives of pilot Sarah Lemmon, 31, of Anaheim Hills, Calif.; co-pilot James Bland, 52, of Carlsbad, Calif.; security guard Charles Still, 25, of Los Angeles; and Barker's assistant Chris Baker, 29, also of Los Angeles.
AM and Barker, who both sustained second- and third-degree burns, are expected to make a full recovery.
