Sammy supports Ambassadors of Hope and Opportunity

Recently, Kari and I attended the Ambassadors of Hope and Oppourtunity (AHO) "Youth Connect" event which provides a variety of services, clothing, and food for homeless youth in Marin County. 

It's hard to believe in a community like Marin County there are homeless kids in the streets — it's a serious problem around the country that I'm just becoming aware of.

So, Kari and I, through the Hagar Family Foundation, are finding ways to help support these types of shelters. I want to thank Neal Schon for jumping right in there with me, with a match to our grant campaign!


[Update]

A HUGE THANKS to all of you who reached out and showed your support for Ambassadors Of Hope And Opportunity last week. They surpassed their $20,000 goal for a grand total of $31,312!!! Woohoo!

[Webmaster Note]

AHO still needs to raise $6,855 by the end of this month to complete their $20,000 Challenge Grant! If you are in a position to donate, please visit their website at the link below and click on the paypal donate button on their homepage.

Amazing experience with the Starkey Hearing Foundation + more adventures in Cabo!

Kari and my recent adventures in Cabo have had some very moving moments! It has been so beautiful down here and the love of the community is the icing on the cake. 

Yesterday we joined a true hero, Bill Austin, and his fantastic team at the Starkey Foundation to bring hearing to hundreds of kids and adults! We worked aside the team, fitting patients with hearing aids and spreading the gift of hearing.

I broke out my guitar to play with some of the kids as they began to hear. Watching their faces and entire beings light up when they heard music for the first time was the coolest experience. I think it brought us nearly as much joy as it did them! Check out the video below from the Starkey Foundation.

Earlier in the weekend I made a surprise appearance at the Cantina , hopping on stage and playing with Cabo Uno to debut my newest song "No Worries" – it was a blast!!!

I also had the chance to roam around Cabo with Jorge for a bit to say "hi" and check in with the locals to see how they were doing after the events of the Hurricane Odile — everyone was in good spirits and happy to be getting back on their feet. It was something I haven't done in a while and it felt so nice to recieve that love from the locals in the community. We also did a bit of cooking and preparation for my new book, "Are We Having Fun Yet?" and afterwards we even got a chance to do a little recording for Listen Carefully on the beach in the perfect Cabo weather.

Finally, to top it all off, I got to play one of the wildest games of golf I've ever had in Cabo. I seriously cannot get over how crazy this was! No photoshop involved here folks, I actually managed to land this birdie (unintentionally) right on top of a CACTUS!!
