About Us

We are 9 Silicon Valley families supporting their children’s wishes to make a difference in this world, no matter how young.

The initial inspiration came from 7 year old Nikki watching American Idol Gives Back, and crying over the clips showing the judges in the poorest parts of Africa. She decided that she needed to “save a lot of children” and continuously asked her mom to produce a charity CD.

Not being musically inclined, and knowing nothing about how to produce a CD, her mom slowly found a choir coach willing to work for the project at no cost. Nikki asked her friends to join her cause, and eventually the group found a recording engineer.

Nikki’s Uncle Steve, who has produced 2 CDs himself, gave guidance and support. All the moms pooled their resources and underwrote the costs so that 100% of the sales could be donated. This took us a year and a half.

The group rehearsed in Nikki’s home and in the 15 year old harpist’s house before recording . Don Budd, the recording engineer, helped the young singers through the sessions. Once the CD was mastered, one of the grandfathers of the kids asked a favor from Daniel Huenergardt who designed our beautiful artwork, again donating everything. Banners and posters were done at a discount. It seemed the whole community wanted to help the kids become successful.

The group chose Doctors Without Borders, Children’s Malnutrition Program to be the beneficiary of the sales, allowing the Silicon Valley kids to help other less fortunate children living with famine, war, and inadequate medical attention. This was Nikki’s Dream.

Please consider being a part of the dream of these young and eager children who want to make a difference, and purchase a CD, or donate. It is the wish of every mother involved to have their child feel empowered and empathetic at an early age, and to carry these lessons through their lifetime.

This is the start of a children’s non-profit, one we plan on growing. Watch for other CDs in the coming months and years!
