The owner of The Drake, Alec Glasser, learned to play the saxophone at age 12 and believes the experience helped shape his life for the better. Now, it’s his mission with The Drake Gives to provide the same kind of opportunity for children of public schools that have been affected by budget cuts.

“My wish is for today’s generation of kids to experience the joy and creativity of music,” says Glasser.

The nonprofit has partnered with the Save The Music Foundation to inspire youth through the power of music. If you’d like to support a great cause, mark your calendar for The Drake’s Summer Soul-stice VIP Event on Tuesday, June 22 from 6–9 p.m. This intimate evening celebrates the longest day of the year while benefiting The Drake Gives and its charitable efforts.

The Drake invites guests to wear gold and white for this enchanted night. Enjoy flavorful hors d’oeuvres from Chef Paul Gstrein, specialty cocktails, and a lively auction hosted by Zack Krone.

Some of the auction items include a private golf lesson with world-renowned instructor Rick Smith. Others are a three-night stay at The Palms in Las Vegas. In addition the Vegas package also comes with a $1,000 flight credit to make your getaway even easier. Other highlights include a private catered dinner for up to eight guests and plenty more exciting experiences to bid on! Tickets for the Summer Soul-stice are $250 each and will be limited in supply. The event is expected to reach capacity quickly, so be sure to purchase your tickets here!

The goal for the Summer Soul-stice event is to raise over $100,000. This would equate to 2,000 students getting access to instruments, music education and instruction.

Glasser explains, “With every $50 raised, The Drake Gives and Save The Music are able to support music education. We also provide a child with an instrument of their own for a year!”

Between the sounds of music and the feeling of giving back to the community, you can expect this to be a summer night to remember!
