Twenty years, one mission
What started as a small benefit show in 2008 has grown into one of the largest free music festivals in the Country. Words never spoken, notes never played, swim strokes that used to cause fear: your support makes those firsts happen for local families living with autism.
$1.2M+
Given to area families since 2008
$200K+
Raised and distributed in a single year
100%
Volunteer run. Nobody is paid.
