New Powerhouse member and Senior Connor Bond had this to say about it: “The Thirst Project Gala was an incredible experience! It was an honor to perform at such a big event and to be apart of a celebration of the achievements of such a worthwhile and inspiring organization. We all had a blast performing! It was cool and unique to perform in the audience and see the audience’s reaction when they were only a few feet away from us! I thought it was special to be a part of such an awesome and fun evening and I loved every moment of it!”

Powerhouse helped to raise over $200,000 and performed with Nashville singer/songwriter Jenn Bostic.
