Tom Savage Quarter Note Foundation

Music Fundraiser

Welcome to our third annual Tom Savage Quarter Note Foundation Music Fundraiser. It is hard to believe that this is our third event, honoring Tom’s life and legacy. Last year we adopted a new slogan, “We’re on a Mission from Tom”. The mission has been a huge success and we feel Tom would be very proud of the fact that we have given out over $40,000 in donations and scholarships! This is only possible because of our generous Sponsors and people like you!

Tom touched all of our lives in many

different ways, as a son, brother, father, teacher, musician, cousin and friend. I’m sure he is smiling down on us today as we all come together in his honor.

We hope you enjoy the music, food, prizes

and revelry as we once again honor and contribute to Tom's legacy of helping others.

For more information please visit our

website at www.tomsavagefoundation.org

Thank you for your generous support and please patronize our sponsors, as their generosity helps make this all possible.

wonderful talents and capturing the

“At every band concert, I

would look up to see my

teacher conducting. It was

strange when he was no

longer there anymore. He

was more than just my

band teacher, he was

someone I looked up to and

respected. He taught me

things that I will always

use throughout my life.”

“Thank you so much for the

very generous gift, it was very

generous and hugely helpful. It

is a beautiful thing you are

doing in Tom's honor,

supporting families going

through the challenges of

cancer which you understand

first hand. I am aware of his

journey and what a special

person he was and feel very

honored to receive this gift

from the foundation that

carries his name”

“Mr. Savage was the most

positive person I have ever

known. His attitude towards

life remained upbeat even

after his cancer diagnosis. I

knew that teaching music was

one of his passions in life. He

could barely speak, but he

could hear us play each

week. He showed me how

important it is to continue

doing what you love even

during difficult times.”
