What is so good about "Keeping It Local" is its grass roots ethic. Since its inception, Keeping It Local has been about helping local school kids, enlisting the talents of local people, shining a positive light local businesses and helping to fund non-profit organizations. It's a win-win for everyone: it helps the schools, the kids, the musicians, and the participating organizations.
The first "Keeping It Local" campaign was a music CD featuring local bands. The main sponsor was Evansville Federal Credit Union. It was well received and was called "Music in the Schools." |
Evansville Federal Credit Union funded the project and sold it at their locations. It raised $10,000 for the EVSC's elementary schools' music departments.
