We got glamorous at the Glam Rock-themed Music for All Ball benefitting Rock to the Future.
On May 7th we got all dolled up and headed for the Mummer’s Museum for the Music for All Ball. This yearly event is a major drive for Rock to the Future, a 501c3 nonprofit organization. This sold-out event was attended by fans, friends, supporters new and old, and Rock to the Future students and nearly doubled what we raised last year (and 6x what we raised the first year!) Thanks to all of our incredible sponsors, staff, supporters, attendees, and everyone else who had a hand in making this 3rd annual event the most successful yet.
Our goal of $30,000 raised was surpassed, as we hit $31,000 by the end of the night.

2016 HALL OF FAME INDUCTEE
Connor Barwin, Defensive End for the Philadelphia Eagles
Balancing a successful NFL career with intense charity work is no east feat, but Connor manages to do it all with a smile! We thank him for his support of our mission to provide free music education in Philly, and for giving our students the opportunity to attend games and meet with him in person! In addition to his partnership with RTTF, Connor founded the Make the World Better Foundation (MWBF) which supports the community through arts, athletics, and environmental responsibility.
