VOLUSIA COUNTY BLUES SOCIETY
dba DAYTONA BEACH BLUES SOCIETY

Mission Statement

Our mission is to promote, educate and preserve the unique American
musical art form known as “blues” by developing programs and workshops,
organizing special events, and creating a community of blues lovers. In
pursuing our mission, we encourage and support our member musical
artists who help to heighten awareness and enjoyment of all styles of blues
and related music.

We are a non-profit (501(c)3 organization operated and funded by
membership dues and donations. All proceeds from special events benefit
one of our four charities: Chase Academy (school for autistic children);
Guitars for Vets (music therapy for Military Veterans afflicted with PTSD);
Kids Rock the Nation (providing musical instruments and mentorship to
children with a desire to learn about music); and, Parkinson Association of
Greater Daytona Beach (dedicated to improving the quality of life for those
impacted by Parkinson’s disease through research, education, fundraising,
and outreach).
