Ben Harper is a 3-Time Grammy Winner. He will preform solo, up close and personal. We are honored to have him headline our Concert of Hope. Whitney Shay will open the concert. She has won 5 San Diego Music Awards including Artist of the Year. This will be an amazing evening of music and help homeless youth get off the streets in San Diego. Be an ANGEL for homeless youth and please join us.

Doors of Change is a 501-C-3 Organization that has helped over 2600 homeless youth get off the streets and into safe housing since 2001. Many of these youth become self-sufficient as a result. Our Homeless Youth Advocacy program develops trust very quickly with youth. Once trust is established, homeless youth ask for help. We help the most vulnerable youth, the transitional age youth (TAY) ages 17 to 25.  Most are homeless because they come from such dysfunctional families, it is safer to live on the streets or if they are LGBTQ+ and come out, their parents kick them out of their home. Since COVID-19, we have broken records for the past 3 years in placing youth in safe housing. In 2022 we shattered the record by 188 youth, placing 349 youth in safe housing in San Diego. 100% of your tickets sales will go to help homeless youth because our amazing corporate Angels have underwritten all the costs of the concert. Any donation or ticket sale with be Matched dollar per dollar and doubled by the J.D. Bud and Vonda Webb Foundation. You will hear from ex homeless youth Justine’s amazing “Rocky Story” of living on the streets from 12 to 15 years old and graduating from LAW SCHOOL in March 2023.
