Bread
& Roses shares hope and healing through live music with children
undergoing chemotherapy, teens battling substance abuse, families living
in shelters for the abused or homeless, seniors nearing the end of life
transition, and others who live among us, but isolated from us.
There is a great and growing need for the healing Bread & Roses inspires.
We need your support and thank you for your generosity.

capital gains taxes on the appreciation, receive a tax deduction for the
full value of the gift, and support Bread & Roses.

as near as possible to the date of the gift. If you wish to donate stock,
