Dear friends, family, and music lovers,

I started this GoFundMe campaign to help my little brother.

He is 10 years old and his name is Austin Kelly. He wants to play the Irish pipes (also called Uilleann pipes) in our family band.

A master instrument builder needs hundreds of hours to make a full set of Uilleann pipes. The instrument costs $16,240 and all donations will go directly to buying it.

Even a small donation helps. And if you can't donate, please share this campaign with someone who would love to support a 10 year old kid get the instrument he's dreaming of.

If you'd like to see us perform and get to know our Irish family band, visit our YouTube channel: The Royal Kellys

I'll keep you all updated here and on my band's Facebook page.

Sláinte to music, family, and keeping authentic traditions alive.

With gratitude, Michael Kelly ❤️
