Amanda* hasn't had an easy life. Having been in the foster care system, the eight-year-old experienced trauma at a young age. 

What gives her comfort? Playing the violin. 

She's been doing so for the past two years thanks to support from the Department of Children & Families. 

"Playing the violin has been a great source of self-esteem and healing for Amanda," her grandmother Samantha* told us. 

Samantha recently adopted Amanda and approached the Arts Foundation of Cape Cod (AFCC) for financial assistance — so her granddaughter could continue her lessons at the Cape Symphony. We enthusiastically said yes. 

We were able to fund a full year of violin classes for Amanda because of you!
