This first House Concert was so successful, the Federation decided to plan more!

On Thursday, June 25, 2009, the Federation hosted a first ever House Concert Benefit. It was an evening to remember, thanks to our gracious and generous hosts, Mike Walsh and Maureen Manning, and our fabulous entertainers, singer/pianist Kira Small and her husband, famed bassist Bryan Beller. Kira’s smooth and soulful sound and her vibrant energy wowed the audience and left us all wanting to hear more.

The setting couldn’t have been more perfect, from the beautiful grounds to the break in the rainy weather. Somewhere amid the mingling, the music and the delicious RedBones barbecue, parents of children with special needs made powerful connections with each other. This was also an opportunity for families to learn about the resources, programs and supports offered by the Federation. The evening was fun, and was as much a celebration as it was informative.

Special thanks to the following people for their volunteer work and contributions:
