Celebrating 12 Years of Music & Memories: A Heartfelt Fundraiser Supporting Skagit Adult Day Program
Each spring, something magical happens in the Skagit Valley—a gathering filled with song, joy, and deep community connection. Music & Memories, the annual fundraiser for Skagit Adult Day Program, has become more than just an event. Now in its 12th year, it’s a cherished tradition that brings people together in support of a vital local resource for seniors and adults with cognitive impairment.
A Night to Remember
What began over a decade ago as a small gathering has blossomed into one of the area’s most anticipated celebrations. Music & Memories is an evening of live music, inspiring stories, delicious food, and heartfelt generosity. It’s a night where families share their experiences and community members rally together to ensure that no one in need of adult day services goes without.
Each year, the event features a unique speaker and auction, but the heart of the evening remains the same: honoring the dignity, joy, and resilience of those served by Skagit Adult Day Program.
Why It Matters
Skagit Adult Day Program provides a safe, nurturing space where seniors and adults with dementia can spend the day in companionship, activity, and care. For families and caregivers, it’s a lifeline—offering peace of mind and the chance for rest, work, or simply a break. Programs like these are essential, yet often underfunded.
That’s why Music & Memories is so important. Proceeds go directly toward program costs, supplies for families in financial need, and enriching activities for participants. Every ticket purchased, every silent auction bid, and every note played helps support a better quality of life for some of Skagit County’s most vulnerable residents.
Looking Back—and Ahead
Over the past 12 years, Music & Memories has raised thousands of dollars and touched countless lives. It’s more than a fundraiser—it’s a celebration of compassion and community spirit. Attendees leave with full hearts, many returning year after year, bringing new friends and spreading the word.
As Skagit Adult Day Program looks to the future, Music & Memories stands as a shining example of what happens when a community comes together to care for its own.
