October 12for12k Charity: Musicians on Call

Posted on 13. Oct, 2009 by Kyle Judkins in Miscellaneous

I would like to introduce you to October’s 12for12k charity, Musicians on Call.  Musicians on Call brings music to the bedside of patients.  This is a great way to bring some joy to patients and their families in a very hard time in their lives. Music has always been a great way to express and show emotions, and I think it is very fitting to bring this art to patients that need a little joy and excitement in their lives.

One of the things I have really liked about 12for12k is how they show you exactly what your donation goes towards.  Here is what a small donation to Musicians on Call will do.

• $10 brings one song to the bedside of a patient in a healthcare facility
• $50 brings 5 songs to the bedsides of patients in a healthcare facility
• $150 brings music to 15 patients through MOC’s Bedside Performance Program
• $250 buys 20 “Discmen” for a CD Pharmacy so patients can listen to music in their beds
• $500 brings the Performance Program for three weeks to a healthcare facility
• $1000 brings the Performance Program for six weeks to a healthcare facility
• $2500 creates a CD Pharmacy in your name or in honour of someone
• $5000 brings the Performance Program for six months to a healthcare facility
• $10000 brings the Bedside Performance Program to a healthcare facility for one year

Visit the 12for12k blog to make a donation.  Any and all amounts are greatly appreciated!
