The concert, which can be enjoyed live at Bourré or streamed online through various channels, will raise money for The Leadership Studios, an Atlantic City non-profit organization that focuses on helping the community through a variety of programs and events. A portion of the proceeds will also go towards the musicians performing during the concert.

After almost a year since the Coronavirus pandemic swept across the nation and shut down communities, the suffering of small businesses, restaurants, clubs and the entertainment industry is still significant. The mission behind this charity event is to show support for those who help to bring a little light to our lives, whether that be through music, healthy living programs, or community events.
