   It is such an honor to be able to put together a musical performance within my own community. The program is for the once upon a year donation known to many as, “Toys for tots.” The program is held once a year and is aimed at getting packaged toys to children that are in programs such as foster care. The audience is going to be the whole community and is aimed at people that may not consistently donate each year. Music helps create thinking that can be creative and thoughtful (Pierce 2015). The type of musical instruments used would grab the community’s attention. Musical instruments such as chimes, organs, tambourine, and bells would be used to bring a show that grabs the emotions of the people listening.  

       An elevated level of music may distract the individuals listening to it without affecting their thought process (Cheema et al 2012). The purpose of the message is to bring awareness to the cause by producing a performance that makes people feel the positive psychological impact that music produces. The overall purpose of the performance is to have people donate whom attend the and connect with others throughout the community with the common goal in mind which is to help less fortunate children. The best way to get the word out to the community is through advertising. To attract more people, I would have posters throughout the city that would have attention grabbers to bring more people to want to participate.
