Under the leadership of Kay Cook, Desert Bells International, Inc. has provided an environment in which youth not only learn about music, but also acquire valuable life skills such as responsibility, commitment and confidence for their future endeavors. Your attendance and donation to our Spring Ring and Auction will not only help finance future performances, but also provide funds needed for scholarships. With the declining economy, more students were in need of assistance to participate in the Desert Bells program. We did not feel we could turn down those students because of lack of funds. Consequently, Desert Bells’ budget has been stretched to the outer limits and is in desperate need of immediate funds to continue.
This year’s auction is themed “An Afternoon at the Oscars”. Attendees are encouraged to walk our red carpet dressed in their Oscar best, enjoy a catered lunch and concert featuring some of the Desert Bells choirs. And, of course, you’ll have ample opportunity to bid on all of the auction items on display or maybe win in the raffle. Ticket Prices: Adults $20.00: Seniors/Under 12 $15.00
Tickets are available online at www.desertbells.org.
We will be providing space in the program for businesses to advertise, and we also encourage parents and friends to buy space for a personal message to the ringer of your choice. This makes the day even more special for the ringers. Please call the Desert Bells office for pricing on ads (602-494-7464).
If you cannot attend and would like to make a donation, please contact us.

Many of our students are in need of financial assistance. Their parents in many cases work 2 to 3 jobs to just make ends meet. The students have the desire, ability, and the fortitude to succeed and they just need a little help. We are reaching out to the community and seeking those worthwhile students to enable them to participate in an excellent program. Many of our students come from Title One Schools, such as Palo Verde Middle School in Phoenix, AZ. Desert Bells widens children’s worlds. They learn to be committed, they build their self esteem, they develop dexterity and poise, they develop public performance skills, they master music fundamentals, their involvement encourages teamwork, and it all promotes accountability. In total, they learn to be a valuable asset to society. Your contribution of $10, $20, $50, $100, or more will be so worthwhile toward building a future for these young people. If many people like yourself could make small donations on a regular basis Desert Bells could recruit and train so many more than we do at the present.
