“Creating a brighter today for neighbors in need.”
L A M P
On the first weekend of every month, the Great Falls Community Food Bank will place large containers to collect canned food at every participating venue. It's a great opportunity for folks to help out locally while enjoying Great Falls finest art, live music, and entertainment.
Local Artists & Musicians Project
Our mission is to bring together the local artistic, musical and entertainment community for local charitable causes. LAMP receives no funds or any portion of proceeds, and is a freewill, volunteer effort on behalf of local charities.
Once a year, LAMP volunteers will host a fundraising event featuring live music, art and entertainment to support a local charity. LAMP will also provide an online exchange helping musicians and entertainers share their talents by performing voluntarily in retirement homes, hospitals, shelters and for other local charitable organizations.
