Last year, the organization served 325 individuals: 126 direct care clients (Care Partners) battling life threatening illness; 53 children under the age of 18 as well as 151 primary care givers throughout the Central Texas Area. All funds raised will immediately impact the lives of individuals who would otherwise go without care.

Bobby Bookout is a singer/songwriter based out of Austin Texas. He grew up in the country outside a small town in South Texas called Carrizo Springs. After a long stint in the United States Navy he used his Montgomery GI Bill to obtain a degree in Commercial Music from South Plains College in Levelland Texas. In 2007, upon graduation from SPC, he moved to Austin to begin work on his full length self titled debut which was released in June of 2010. Bobby's music is crafted outside 'the box'. As both, singer and songwriter, he remains stylistically versatile in an effort to stay true to his own broad taste in music. From one song to the next; he crosses the spectrum of genres, weaving them together with his own unique thread of continuity. 

This for-benefit collaboration is led by Care Communities volunteer and board member Adrian Mertz and Care Team Stone Soup!
