Benefit Concert for If Not for Music a Great Success
If Not for Music’s first benefit concert was held April 23, 2024, at the Spence Café in West Chester, PA. Organized by our President’s Advisory Council member Bruce Donohoe, over 45 supporters of INFM enjoyed dinner, conversation and a wonderful blues/rock performance by an ensemble headlined by local musician Josh Komoroski (guitar/lead vocals). Josh was joined by Biff McNeil (sax), Jimmy L. Coleman III (drums), Rob Mastrippolito, Jr. (guitar and back-up vocals) and Dave Mattock (keyboard). Dave is also a member of INFM’s President’s Advisory Council.
Co-Founders Jae Winter and Roger Mustalish spoke to the mission, vision, and impact of INFM. In addition to vital funds raised, an instrument donation was made, adding to our growing inventory of instruments and accessories. Three other President’s Advisory Council members were in attendance: Ellen Donohoe, Chris Hanning and Pat O’Donnell. The proceeds from the event will support our three mission areas: the Gift of Music, the Gift of Performance and the Gift of Learning.
