I have been blessed to participate in the Bread and Roses shows for over 10 years now. I donate my time to sing at various senior care centers around the Bay Area, and the experiences have been so gratifying. I've worked with wonderful pianists like Si Perkoff, his son Max Perkoff, "The Duchess" Miss Gini Wilson, and Ross Gualco. We have a great time sharing what we love, and for this we get to meet a bunch of other artists who also give their time, and share what they love, and have a party of music and food and joy. Mine is a good life. THE BREAD AND ROSES MISSION: Bread & Roses is dedicated to uplifting the human spirit by providing free, live, quality entertainment to people who live in institutions or are otherwise isolated from society. Our performances:
enrich the soul and promote wellness through the healing power of the performing arts; create a sense of community for our professional performers, in a non-commercial setting in which they can donate their talents to inspire and be inspired; provide an opportunity for non-performing volunteers to contribute a variety of skills and resources that support our humanitarian services and increase the impact of donor contributions.
In carrying out this mission, Bread & Roses seeks to create a social awareness of people who are isolated from society, and to encourage the development of similar organizations in other communities. IF THIS MOVES YOU, PLEASE CLICK HERE TO SEE HOW YOU CAN HELP!
