My name is Dominic Caudle and I am an 8th grader at Hope Lutheran School, and I attend the West Seattle School of Rock. I am doing a service project to raise funds for Music4Life, a non profit dedicated to getting musical instruments into the hands of kids in need at various public schools throughout the greater Seattle area. I have started a GoFundMe page and the West Seattle School of Rock will offer opportunities to donate at a benefit concert that will be held at the Hard Rock Cafe [116 Pike St.] on March 25 from 2:00-4:00.

I am passionate about this because I’ve always loved music, and a lot of that was due to the people who were kind enough to donate instruments to me. Since the musical community was so kind to me, I wanted to give back. I would love it if you consider donating. Any amount will be greatly appreciated.

HELP RESCUE DOGS: Visit Whisky West (6451 California SW) for a benefit today – raffle and more! – helping Bulldog Haven NW.
