I am thrilled to let you know that Livingston Taylor--one of America's finest singer-songwriters--has agreed to play a benefit concert for Hope Collaborative.
Livingston will be performing Wednesday, July 12th at 7:00 at the historic Oakley Country Club in Watertown, Massachusetts for you and a select group of Hope's friends, neighbors, donors, and supporters. His hits include I Will Be in Love With You, I'll Come Running, and Boatman—the last two recorded by brother James.

Proceeds from the night will help us grow Hope's network of youth advocacy partners where we provide outstanding leadership development programs to a growing number of kids in low-income neighborhoods everywhere. Hope currently runs programs in Massachusetts, New York, India, Israel, and Sierra Leone with some of the best youth leadership advocates working today. We build our outreach in collaboration with our friends and partners at The Clay Center for Young Healthy Minds at Massachusetts General Hospital.
Our leadership and education program allows kids to redefine and reimagine who they are. Think about the power of youth growing up with purpose, identifying as leaders, and envisioning better futures. Mujadid, a student from Hope’s Malik Academy program, said at graduation: "I will take the lessons of Hope with me for the rest of my life.”
The work transforms and changes lives for good. I’ve seen it first hand. You may have, too, with the Hope Clips of the kids teaching each other how to be leaders.
The upcoming July 12th benefit event will be a wonderful evening of music and friendship. Tickets are $100—or a donation of your choosing—and include music, food, beverages, and a beautiful summer view of Boston. Livingston Taylor is the featured artist. Opening is one of the Boston's finer jazz bands, The Harvey Diamond Trio.

As Livingston sings in his hit song Boatman:
Hearts were exploding around us
As we drifted south in the bay
The grey up above and the grey down below
Left us with nothing to say.
So we drifted along in the silence
'Til the tickle of life trickled in
And the rhythm began in the hiss of the sand
We were catching fire again.
