Quote: “​​The Transformation Through Rhythm concerts bring together the perfect combination of music, community and helping support a cause. In previous years we held them as fundraisers for our local hospice, as well as a sister hospice in South Africa. I’m thrilled the concerts are being resumed, with the fundraising component supporting Give DeKalb County, thus benefiting all nonprofits in our county. The concert itself is amazing, a joyful tapestry of rhythm, energy, people, color and inspiration.”
