Gift of Hope is a nonprofit organization dedicated to saving and enhancing lives through organ and tissue donation. CarrCARE proudly donates 10% of event proceeds annually to support their mission, honoring CEO Alana N. Carr’s 30-year journey of life after receiving a liver, small bowel, and pancreas transplant. Throughout her recovery and health challenges, Alana has used music as a source of healing, enjoyment, and social connection, reinforcing the importance of wellness beyond medical treatment.
