Both Mary, and her mother, who is her driver, rodie, sound technician, & social media and administrative aid, provide all Mary's concerts on a 100% volunteer basis and neither receive any compensation whatsoever. All concert fees and any donations go directly to the 501(c)(3) Blind Notes Music, Inc. charitable organization. This is to build funds to provide support for Blind Notes Music to continue with Mary's concerts when her mother is no longer able to assist her. The ultimate goal is to hire a personal assistant to travel with Mary, and a full-time sound technician when her mother can no longer assist. Thank you for considering helping BNM/Mary to help prepare her to carry on without the help of her parents. There are also several areas where Mary/Blind Notes Music, Inc. needs ongoing financial assistance. BNM/Mary has needs in the areas of transportation, lodging, equipment purchase/repair, and website support, just to name a few. To make a safe, encrypted donation, click DONATE
