On January 5th, we had the privilege of hosting our third Kids Charity Concert. The room was filled with love, laughter, and pride as 29 incredible kids, from as young as 3 to 17 years old, took to the stage to share their talents. It’s hard to put into words how much their bravery and passion meant to us.
From the first shy note to the last triumphant applause, these young performers stole our hearts. It’s not easy to stand in front of a microphone, but they did it with courage and joy, knowing their music was making a real difference. Every piece played and every song sung was filled with the spirit of hope and compassion. These kids reminded us all that kindness and generosity can come from even the smallest hands.
And here’s the amazing part — together, we raised $3,100 to support our efforts in Ukraine! We couldn’t be prouder or more grateful for everyone who made this possible.
A Huge Thank You From All of Us

This concert was a beautiful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together as a community.
