Be Loud Virtual wrapped up yesterday and we are incredibly grateful to the DJs and producers that showed up every week to write and record.

We are excited to share these pieces throughout the next month, celebrating the work that DJs are doing at home and 100% on their own.

This week, DJ Lemonade and a story about her favorite memory of waiting in line for a ride at Harry Potter Land.

Where will your money go?
Here is what your money will fund:
1. It will go directly to funding 40 scholarships, so half of the campers can go to camp completely free.
2. It will fund field trips around New Orleans to interview artists, musicians, and other members of the community.
3. It will pay for community artists to come to camp to teach and mentor our young DJs.

We will share these interviews on the next episode of the Be Loud Radio Hour. #staytuned
