Blues Lovers United of San Diego

Want to join me in making a difference? I'm raising money to benefit the Blues Lovers United of San Diego Summer Blues Camp, and any donation will help make an impact. Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.

Blues Lovers United of San Diego (BLUSD) is an all-volunteer, non-profit, membership-driven 501c3 corporation affiliated with The Blues Foundation of Memphis, Tennessee. We actively promote all aspects of blues music throughout Southern California through a variety of activities, including weekly newsletters and participation in the International Blues Challenge in Memphis. Our Summer Blues Camp is the crown jewel of our accomplishments, AND tuition alone does not begin to cover the expense of hiring all of our outstanding instructors. You simply must attend our free Camp concert on August 9th to experience the joy in the room!

Blues Lovers United of San Diego is a non-profit, all-volunteer organization. We offer a yearly week-long Blues Music Summer Camp for teenagers. Our Fundraiser is to provide scholarships for low-income families, instrument donations to students and assist in the running costs of the Camp.

Under the guidance of professional local San Diego Blues Musicians, 25 participants learn the instrument of their choice – Drums, Bass, Guitar, Keys, Harmonica and Vocals. BLUSD.ORG has been offering this opportunity for 12 years and many of our participants return for several years in a row. Some are now professional musicians! The program culminates in a public concert presenting the great benefit and skills acquired by the students. They love it!

One student last year said the only bad thing that happened was he could not come for one day! Another told us she finally gained confidence to sing on stage and this meant the world to her. Almost all of them mention the joy they feel playing on stage and sharing time with the professional musicians.

We would very much appreciate any contribution you might make to this worthy cause. And you are all invited to the camp concert on August 11th!
