This event marks HPP’s first foray into both working with an accomplished artist of Carter’s caliber as well as the arena of large-scale cultural fundraisers. "A talented, charismatic player who is almost single-handedly reviving interest in the violin as a jazz instrument." — Los Angeles Times Carter, who has been praised by critics worldwide, is a recipient of a MacArthur Foundation “Genius” Fellowship, has been a Resident Artistic Director at SF Jazz, and is a regular performer in the Bay Area. In addition to these San Francisco connections, her extensive musical tributes to her mother, family, and heritage offer synergies between her creative efforts and HPP’s organizational mission to empower families. For the past 26 years, HPP has been guided by its mission to, in partnership with families, break the cycle of childhood poverty. The organization joins with families to help them recognize their strengths and trust in their capacity to transform their lives. HPP believes that pregnancy creates an important opportunity for positive change for expecting parents.

    THREE DAYS IN SUPPORT OF THREE NONPROFITS • The NAACP Legal Defense Fund (LDF) is America’s premier legal organization fighting for racial justice. Through litigation, advocacy, and public education, LDF seeks structural changes to expand democracy, eliminate disparities, and achieve racial justice in a society that fulfills the promise of equality for all Americans. LDF is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization • The Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF) is the nation’s largest nonprofit organization exclusively representing the Black College Community. TMCF member-schools include the publicly-supported Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Predominantly Black Institutions (PBIs). • The Monterey Jazz Festival is the oldest continuously-running jazz festival in the world established as a nonprofit organization in 1958. MJF will support participating jazz artists who are disproportionately impacted and losing their livelihoods due to COVID-19. The Monterey Jazz Festival’s mission is to inspire the discovery and celebration of jazz, anchored by an iconic festival. Even though we are not able to host an in-person festival in 2020, our work is anchored by an annual communion around jazz, a music rooted in black culture. A Virtual Festival in 2020 allows us to: • support our community of jazz musicians who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19; • celebrate student musicians who have lost so many celebratory moments in 2020, such as proms and graduations; • take action to support trusted nonprofit organizations doing important work to promote social justice, end racism, provide equal opportunity and celebrate black culture. Black Lives Matter! Title Partnership Opportunity MJF Partnership $100,000 level includes 2 Years of benefits! • Designation as the Presenting Sponsor of the 2020 Virtual Monterey Jazz Festival benefiting THREE trusted nonprofit organizations playing critical roles in solving racial injustice and inequality.
