The Stars 4 Peace is a flexible platform intended to provide support direct-to-need.

In years past we have addressed serious issues like survival of trauma due to abuse, homelessness and more.

We have successfully provided clothes to youth in disadvantaged circumstances, women in transition, people with no homes and even returning citizens. 

Help us rock this project.

Wonderful

Stellar Thanks

Giving DIRECT-TO-NEED

This year we coordinate with local organizations, musicians, artists and local radio and alternative media platforms to create an ongoing cycle of awareness addressing youth homelessness.

We already enjoy the support of many local businesses and Tacoma's music and arts culture, making it simple to focus the attention of our city on the forgotten youth with no shelter in our communities.


Previous years, Stars 4 Peace have been used to highlight important areas of need in Tacoma's neighborhoods and have contributed important supplies like food and clothing to survivors of trauma due to abuse, youth in underprivileged communities and people with no place to stay.

Giving even small amounts of monetary support as a whole community to support organizations allows them to accomplish their missions and encourages them in their work. We research, vet and present the local organizations we feel do an exceptional job and believe are under-supported in the work they do.

As a community we encounter thousands of people together who will also help support youth, once they know how they can do so. The organizations we have worked to get to know need community support.

This year, we focus our attention on Youth with No Shelter in Tacoma,
working with radio and other media, along with the local business,
art and music community to demonstrate what is possible
when a community comes to the aid of those that
need support at a critical stage of life.

To see what we are doing now, visit
www.TacomaJOY.com
The list of organizations in the middle section on that home page are
serving youth with no shelter in our city in necessary and critically important ways.
Play a part in this important work, give generously as you feel comfortable giving,
directly to the organizations providing this critical support to youth.


It was an ambassador who said,

"How a society treats its most vulnerable is always the measure of its humanity."

With the efforts of so many, Tacoma communities can augment
the work of local government to better provide for the youth
that need our help the most, at a time we all need hope.

We are Artists 4 Life in the Sound

We began "a Festival at the Heart of Sound" bringing music together with support for youth w/ no shelter, continuing a music tradition central to Tacoma and the South Sound Music Culture since early 1990's.

Fostering collaboration in support of youth w/ no homes in Tacoma & the South Puget Sound, we have since created a sustainable platform where you can support youth in the way that means the most to you. See HERE
