SWAN’s Summer Camp Campaign: Building Hope All Summer Long

Help Us Reach Our $75,000 Goal by January 31

These funds make our 5-week Rising Stars Summer Music Camp possible by supporting:

  • Music instruction and mentoring
  • Instruments, meals, and supplies
  • Transportation and a safe, nurturing environment

Every gift helps build hope: one child, one song, one summer at a time.

Give today and help change a life through music.
