Here’s How Some of You Have Helped!

-Calvin Cieslack, California

At first, the plan was to have a small fundraiser/concert for friends and family – featuring me on guitar, playing some of the music I have written.  Over time, however, plans for the event grew into something much larger.

Enlisting the help of my immediate family, grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins, we invited several hundred people to join us for an evening of music, wine tasting and dessert under the stars. I called the evening VHLstock in the spirit of rock & roll.  And instead of just me on guitar, we pulled together a whole band, featuring my uncle and me playing guitar, my dad on drums and my cousin playing keyboards. 

Over 150 people attended and the event was a tremendous success!  The event is something that has finally made me feel as though I’m doing something progressive for VHL.

Calvin and his family raised more than $10,000 for VHL.
