Event Testimonial
"The dedicated team of volunteers that comprise Band Together is exceptional in every way. They devoted themselves to understanding the mission of the
Lucy Daniels Center and making it their own as they shared our story and sought support from the community. BT is a testament to the power a group of volunteers
can have to inspire others to give and get involved, even during difficult economic times. In addition to presenting incredible concerts, BT builds community
between sponsors, volunteers, and music lovers. They inspired our board, advisory board, staff, and parents to rally together around a common goal. The funds,
community awareness for children’s mental health, and positive energy generated from this event have given the Center a new base of support that we can build on
for years to come! We thank everyone involved with Band Together and look forward to paying it forward by volunteering in future years."
Joyce Watkins King, Director of Development
Lucy Daniels Center for Early Childhood
