Dear Foundation Friends,
The dog days of summer are coming to an end, but thanks to your support, we had one of our most exciting and engaging summers yet.
This summer, we brought New Orleans music directly to kids where they gather: summer camps, parades, and community spaces. We then helped kick off the school year with some exciting back-to-school events. In summer 2025, we reached local 2,659 kids across 37 Camp Visits and 5 Back To School Celebrations. During what’s often a slow season for gigs, PHF put 50 musicians to work, dispersing thousands in wages through summer programs and early fall engagements.
