We are so thankful to the Caffrey family for donating a beautiful blue violin to Drew’s Tunes in honor of their daughter, Jenna.
With the tireless support of family and friends, we started Drew’s Tunes for the two-fold purpose of providing musical instruments to young children and to support research on the cause and possible prevention of SUDC. Within the first year, Drew’s Tunes donated $64,000, helping 365 children in the state of Louisiana. Now we have donated over $200,000 to support music education and research for SUDC, with the majority impacting the children of New Orleans.
Each year for Drew’s Angelversary (March 12th) we ask people to play, dance or sing to Drew’s favorite song Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star and post it to their social media with the hashtag #twinkletribute4drew. For each public video posted with the hashtags we donate $1 to a music program (up to $5,000). We do this bring awareness to Drew’s Tunes and our mission, but also to celebrate our beautiful boy.
Drew’s sweet mama, Georgia, is a guest blogger for New Orleans Moms Blog. In August 2014, she wrote a blog sharing the details from the worst day of her life. We invite you to read her blog to learn about Drew, the day he passed, and how a mother’s love created a legacy for her son that shines so bright.
