Sometimes a letter is like a prayer, written more for the sender than the receiver. There are unsent letters tucked away in dresser drawers and buried in boxes everywhere, serving as testimony that sometimes it's enough to just write it down. You might have a letter of your own somewhere that nobody has ever seen.
But what if you opened the drawer? What if you did send that letter about your fears and insecurities, your hopes and triumphs?
Our family of songwriters and musicians in north San Diego county wrote songs about some of those letters, and asked the senders of the letters to choose a favorite charity. A portion of the proceeds from sales and tours will benefit their causes. Join us as we make the journey of delivering the songs to the people who inspired them: you.
