Thank you for the cool gesture. I just wish we could do that for some of our veterans. They say that music can heal a lot of problems for them.

One of our foster kids had wanted an electric guitar for a long time, and we couldn't afford to buy one. One of my good friends, who had played the guitar for a long time, gave him his guitar. That was one of the most beautiful gestures our child could see. He was so grateful and excited. I have already found a teacher to practice with, and he is already getting better at it. We have been doing foster care for a year now through the agency https://fosterplus.org, and we are grateful that we can take care of these children who have been less fortunate in life.

Great to hear! Hope he loves it and plays long in good health!

Well played Doc! That is an awesome gesture, and I am sure it is much appreciated. I have been fortunate to have done this same thing for two young lads over the years. It feels good to pay it forward.

That's a great gesture, Jim! I recently donated a guitar to the local Milwaukee High School of the Arts. It's a wonderful school with great fine and performing arts programs. So I applaud your donation to a program for young people to develop their musical talents. As we know, music is one of the most therapeutic endeavors in life.
