About the Event
In Greek, "sophomore" translates to "wise fool," and we've got a crew of performing artists ready to support one of our own. Kelsey Leonard found out that her best friend’s son, Sky Taylor, was being bullied in school for being trans. She decided to put together a GoFundMe to pay for his to transfer to Northwest Academy, a private performing arts high school in Portland. Tuition was successfully raised, and now we're aiming for next year. It takes a village to raise a child, and we are that village. Kelsey and Miss Smith are producing a series of concerts throughout the year to raise the $6,000 to $7,000 needed for next year's tuition. If we go over, we'll just get started on his junior year!
"For the first time in his life, he's excited to go to school." —Sky's Mom
