Created in 2013 by local musician, Justin Fedor, Tribute To Benefit is a bi-annual concert held at Neighborhood Theatre that has raised money for Levine Children’s Hospital since inception. With the support of MaxxMusic and drumSTRONG: Drums for Cures, Tribute To Benefit puts on themed concerts showcasing Charlotte’s best in original music performing covers with their own twist. During 2020 & 2021, as most of the music world hit pause, Fedor created several virtual concerts including the Love Thy Neighbor concert which raised over $30,000 for Roof Above. Can we top that this year? We sure hope so!

The life science industry and the amazing people in it are always trying to do hard things—sometimes the seemingly impossible.
