Tahoe Supports Tahoe live stream concert a success for Tahoe Magic and community

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Wednesday night's Tahoe Supports Tahoe live stream concert was a successful one for the South Lake Tahoe community, raising $4,200 during the two-hour concert for Tahoe Magic.

"I am still feeling the warmth from Wednesday night’s Tahoe Supports Tahoe Live Stream Benefit Concert," said Tahoe Magic Co-Founder Wendy David. "Thanks to the musicians who donated their talent and time, and to the promotion efforts just ahead of the concert, we received 88 separate donations totaling $15,290.35 just during the 24 hours of April 15."

The show can be viewed on the Tahoe Supports Tahoe Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/TahoeSupportsTahoe/.

"It was heartwarming to see a great number of people giving $10,20,25, 50 and up because they care about their neighbors," added David.

With the generosity of many community members, David ordered thousands of dollars’ worth of $200 Safeway gift cards. Safeway generously gave Tahoe Magic a 5 percent discount, which makes the money go even further.

These cards will be disbursed Monday to food-insecure families through the Family Resource Center and the Lake Tahoe Unified School District.

To date, Tahoe Magic has brought in over $25,000 that will be disbursed to the community. For more information on Tahoe Magic's COVID-19 response efforts, visit their website at http://tahoemagic.org/covid-19-response/.
