“Through thick and thin Vermonters have a tradition of coming together to support each other. This concert is about bringing Vermont’s musicians together to give Vermont families an evening of beautiful music, entertainment and hope. The concert is also intended to help raise money for the critical relief efforts of the Vermont Foodbank.” Gray said.
“In this time of crisis many of us, some for the first time, might need to ask for help,” said Vermont Foodbank CEO John Sayles. “The Foodbank is here today, getting food and supplies to people who need it, and we’ll be here as long as there is a need. If you need help, reach out. Call 211 or visit www.vtfoodbank.org. If you can help, reach out too. It is an immense task, and we wouldn’t stand a chance if not for the support of our community.”
