Fundraiser for providing music to patients and families dealing with pediatric cancer
The ACL will be helping with a fundraiser to provide relevant music to patients and families dealing with pediatric cancer. We will assist with this project by offering for sale a CD entitled Singing Our Way Through. This is a highly acclaimed CD by singer, songwriter Alastair Moock. The money from sales of the album to the general public, will allow Moock to put the album into the hands of children and families living with cancer. “My hope is to bring some joy to kids with cancer,” says Moock, “and to bring some joy, and a little bit of education, to kids without cancer. But the ultimate goal is to get kids and parents singing together. If this album accomplishes that, it will be a success.”
Reviews of the CD have described it as:
“An uplifting, fun love letter that will speak to kids and families, even if cancer isn’t a daily reality.”
“A joyous collection of songs for all, but especially offered with love to those who have in some way been affected by a similar plight. And they’re fantastic songs — multi-layered, well-produced, and begging to be heard.”More reviews can be seen/heard at:
