Youth Music Project Benefit Gets a Little Help From Friends
Portland, OR. Youth Music Project (YMP) held its third annual benefit, “With A Little Help From Our Friends” at the World of Speed Motorsports Museum on April 13th. At the event, Sue Reinhart, Kirsten Reinhart, Sally Bany (YMP Founder), Mary Jaeger, Rachael Sneddon, and Angie Galimanis took time to jam in front of a vintage VW bus. Over 200 guests heard from guest of honor Dave Dahl’s and enjoyed a heartfelt musical performance with his band The Killer Granddaddies. YMP youth rocked the socks off guests as well and in total, the evening grossed over $200,000. (Photo credit, Tammy Moscato Photography and Ariel Dunn)
All money raised at the benefit supports YMP’s Tuition Assistance Program which allows 40% of enrollments to be free of charge, because the nonprofit believes all children should have access to a quality music education.
