community at the Timberlea School Second Annual Benefit Concert, Friday,
October 2, 6pm - 9pm. Timberlea School will be collecting monetary donations
for their Breakfast Program and gently used instruments for Instruments of Change

addition to the Benefit Concert there will be a song circle or "round
robin" in the atrium at the end of the concert where audience members can
bring their own instruments and participate.
Timberlea School Breakfast Program is run by parent volunteers
who provide healthy breakfasts to hungry students, ensuring they get a great
start to the day and are ready to learn. This program
costs approximately $6,000 per year and relies on donations.
If you are interested in supporting this amazing program, please contact

The Legacy Children’s Foundation focuses on supporting
financially challenged, at risk, children and youth providing them with musical
instruments and the financial resources to pay for lessons from exceptional, local,
musicians. Participants also receive various music-related workshops that
introduce them to the many career options available to them in the music
industry. Instructors are selected not merely for their musical talents but for
their ability to mentor and form positive relationships with their students. The
primary objectives of this program are to assist youth to complete their
education and to stay on a positive life path. The Legacy Gift of Music programs
are an amazing opportunity for youth looking to explore the world of music,
form new friendships, and realize their potential as human beings. To learn
