Proceeds from this concert will
support musical programs
for orphans around the world.


The Cause:
140 children live and go to school at Children's Vision orphanage in Bogota, Columbia. Most are orphans and others are either homeless or live in complete poverty.

Music is a part of these children's lives. It is educational, therapeutic and helps open many closed doors in their hearts. These children love music, but their options are limited because they do not have musical instruments or equipment. Many are extremely talented and have much potential. David was rescued from an abandoned building at age 4. He is now 15, and has personally written many songs.

Creating a marching band and musical program will allow these children to further develop their love for music and provide them with an opportunity to work together in a fun and unique experience.

General Admission - $15
