When you respond, add a note about what you’d like to do, if you’re a performer.

 About our non-profit partner
The Global Women's Foundation and Band of Brothers (GWFBOB) organization is helping veterans suffering from homelessness by supporting each of them into community, housing, and jobs. Its mission is to end veteran homelessness and provide holistic rehabilitation through community, wellness, and connection. Since 2021, GWFBOB has put over 51 veterans in homes.   The Echo Bravo Project is the future heart of their work—a transformative initiative to create a Veterans Sanctuary on a 24+ acre site in Simi Valley, California. This site, which has served as our primary retreat location since 2021, offers veterans a place to heal, grow, and thrive.
