I know from personal experience what it’s like as a musician to choose between gas to get to a gig and food. Throughout my career, there have been little gifts here and there to keep me going. I call them postcards from God. If we can provide that same kind of support to an artist of color who just needs a little support, then this fund is working.” - Rissi Palmer
