Got Music?

The Rotary Club of Des Moines is seeking community and business sponsors to support the 3rd Annual Poverty Bay Blues & Brews Fest.  The festival will take place at the Des Moines Beach Park on Saturday, August 25th and will feature local craft breweries and blues musicians.  The club anticipates that this year's event will draw close to 1,000 attendees.

Got Music?  Did you know that 75% of the students in the Highline School District are on free and reduced lunches and simply cannot afford to participate in a music program?  Research clearly shows that the introduction of music at a young age greatly benefits students academically, especially in the areas of mathematics, science, history and world languages. Giving a child a chance to play a musical instrument provides that child with a richer, fuller, more meaningful life.

That's why the primary beneficiary of the Poverty Bay Blues & Brews Fest is Highline Music4Life.  Highline Music4Life, a Rotary inspired project, provides musical instruments to underprivileged students in the Highline School District. Because of this program, students have access to instruments in good working condition, high quality instruction, and supplies necessary to participate in instrumental music programs. 

As a sponsor, you can directly impact the lives of students, their families and YOUR community.  For as little as $250.00, sponsors can take advantage of the many sponsor benefits associated with helping those that are less fortunate. Your sponsorship is also completely tax deductible through the Rotary Club of Des Moines 501c3 Foundation. 
 
The Rotary Club of Des Moines hopes you will join us in sponsoring this great event and help bring music into a child’s life.  For more information about sponsorship opportunities, please contact Dan Johnson, Sponsorship Chair at (206) 914-3104 or dan.johnson@Q.com.
