ABOUT THE CHARITY
Guitars for Vets (G4V) is a national 501(c)3 non-profit organization. We currently operate over 100 chapters in over 40 states. Over the years, we have refined a guitar lesson program that provides Veterans struggling with PTSD and other emotional distress a unique therapeutic alternative. Our program is primarily run by volunteers working at Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) facilities, community based medical centers, Vet Centers, and Veterans service organizations.

We put the healing power of music in the hands of heroes. Through our work, we help restore feelings of joy and purpose that Veterans can lose after suffering traumatic experiences and help Veterans productively reintegrate into their communities.

To date, G4V has administered over 40,000 guitar lessons and distributed over 4,000 guitars to Veterans. Over the years, we have observed the many ways that our program is enriching the lives of Veterans suffering with mental, physical and emotional distress. Veterans participating in our program have reported better social interactions, the substitution of music for medication, an improved ability at work and greater feelings of personal independence.

Sunday with the Semper Fi Chef to celebrate the Marine Corps' 249th Birthday? YOU BET!

We'll be open to the public, all ages, at noon on Sunday, 11/10, for our celebration and in support of Guitars for Vets, a charity organization helping veterans through the power of learning to play guitar. Three live music acts, fantastic food, beer, cider, and seltzer for all.

Service runs 12pm to 4pm or sellout.
