The Jon Dansie Band, an inspiration in giving…

The Jon Dansie Band is a great example of giving back to the community.  Jon was referred to me as a great guitar teacher for my Son, who has been taking guitar lessons from him for about a year and a half  now.  Since meeting Jon, I’ve come to discover the passion that he and Floyd Kuntz have for giving back to the community. 

Here are a few ways that I know of in which they have given back:

Last August, I asked Jon if his band would be willing to perform at the KidsFest Carnival at Wheeler Farm, helping to raise money for The Christmas Box International, and they jumped right on board.  Despite the rain from time to time, we had a fantastic day and raised a lot of money for abused and neglected children.

Last September, I had the pleasure and watching the band once again, as they were at The Hogle Zoo for the StepOut Walk to Fight Diabetes, raising money for the American Diabetes Association, and earlier that day they had performed at Sugar House Park for the Hydrocephalus Association’s Walk.

Most recently, Starchild Music Productions in conjunction with the Jon Dansie Band was a sponsor for “Hugs For Life”– an organization dedicated to Suicide Prevention and Awareness.  See full story here:

I think it’s important to support those who work so hard to give back to their community, if you feel the same way, check out their website to see how you can help support the Jon Dansie Band and Starchildmusicproductions:
