DREION, 2024 “THE VOICE” CONTESTANT AND FORMER FOSTER YOUTH, SET TO OPEN FOR EARTH, WIND, & FIRE AT MOHEGAN SUN

LOS , CA, UNITED STATES, November 4, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ — In honor of National Adoption Month this November, Philip Bailey of Earth, Wind & Fire, founder of the Music Is Unity Foundation (MIU), announced a partnership with Mohegan Sun to launch a fundraiser to increase awareness and donations for foster youth across the nation. The fundraiser will take place from November 4th through November 18th. Participants who make a donation of $50 or more will automatically be entered for a chance to win a MOHEGAN SUN TICKET GIVEAWAY including Two VIP Tickets to see Earth, Wind, & Fire on December 18th at the Mohegan Sun Arena as well as a Meet and Greet with members of the iconic group following the show*. In addition, the winner will receive a complimentary one-night stay at the Mohegan Sun Hotel**. Each $50 donation will count as one entry, and participants can donate and enter as often as they like for a chance to win. To donate and enter the Mohegan Sun Ticket Giveaway please visit musicisunity.org

In a meaningful addition to the event, DREION, a current contestant and part of Team Snoop on The Voice and former foster youth, will open for Earth, Wind, & Fire. Dreion, who has worked closely with Music Is Unity, uses his powerful voice and personal experiences to advocate for foster youth. He has previously opened shows for the band across the U.S., and his performance highlights MIU’s commitment to providing opportunities and support for youth aging out of the foster care system.

“As youth age out of foster care, they don’t have the same opportunities and support systems as many other children in our society,” said Philip Bailey. “Over 20,000 youth emancipate out of the U.S. foster care system every year, and by raising awareness and funds we are able to be a voice for the voiceless. Even if you are not able to adopt a foster youth, you are able to join the cause by providing stability through funding and mentorship. We are excited to have Dreion open for Earth, Wind, & Fire as he embodies the powerful truth that, with the right support, foster youth can achieve anything.”

Singer/musician Philip Bailey (Earth, Wind, & Fire) and his daughter Trinity Bailey founded the Music Is Unity Foundation in 2007 to realize their dream of giving back to the community by investing in agencies that support foster youth as they transition into adulthood. MIU is focused on developing new and positive ways to enhance the lives of U.S. foster youth including offering educational and creative initiatives such as the “Backstage Soundcheck” program. “Backstage Soundcheck” offers an immersive behind-the-scenes tour of the variety of roles and careers available in the music industry. The inspiring one-day program includes exclusive access to concert preparations, a pre-concert soundcheck, and a special Q&A session with Philip Bailey and other Earth, Wind, & Fire tour staff. The day concludes with a chance for participants to enjoy the electrifying experience of a live Earth, Wind, & Fire concert.
