About the Downeasters:
Established in 1949, the Downeasters is a non-profit organization dedicated to enriching the community through music. Proceeds from singing valentines help the organization support local food pantries, host charitable benefit concerts, raise funds for other local arts non-profits, enable donations to youth and music organizations, and provide sponsorships to students for barbershop and other musical endeavors.

This is all part of our mission: Fostering personal, musical, and community growth and connection through shared vocal harmony.
