The Cashiers Preservation Foundation

We hope you'll join us as we support the needs of the Cashiers community. Simply by attending the festival you are showing your support, and proceeds from ticket sales go directly to the foundation, which in turn will distribute funds to schools or other worthy non-profits in the Cashiers area. Further opportunities for support are available through festival sponsorships which are a tax-deductible way to not only promote your business but also to support the Cashiers area.

Thank you for your support.

Foundation Makes Festival Donations

On Thursday, October 13, 2011 the Cashiers Preservation Foundation made $9,000 worth of donations to local schools and community service organizations at the Village Commons in Cashiers where the annual Cashiers Mountain Music Festival is held. The donations came from proceeds from the 2011 festival, held this past July 2-3 by the Cashiers Area Chamber of Commerce. From left at the donation ceremony are Greg Bloom, chairman of the Summit Charter School Board of Trustees; Randy Dillard, Fire Chief with the Cashiers-Glenville Volunteer Fire Department; Sandy Bishop with the Fishes and Loaves Food Pantry; Kelly Donaldson, co-director of the festival; Sue Bumgarner, Executive Director of the Cashiers Area Chamber of Commerce and administrator of the Cashiers Preservation Foundation; Terry Beye, President of the Cashiers Preservation Foundation; Brenda Stewart with the Glenville-Cashiers Rescue Squad; and Sharon Holt, co-director of the festival.
