Donation Event

The Front Porch

Located right off of the “square” in downtown Springfield, MO, the Front Porch is an up and coming music venue that is known for it’s free concerts.

The Experience

Bands “Avian Sunrise”, “New York, New York”, and singer Rob Hunt all appeal to the more chilled atmosphere with still a youthful charisma.

The cool, relaxed “coffee house” welcomes free flow feelings and a chance for those to communicate passionately with a willing audience as oppose to a band

Benefit Concert

During the show, the x-50 team worked on gaining signatures and engaging the Front Porch patrons.

In between the bands acts, the emotional and informative video “Ray Of Hope” played telling the story of an organ donors tragic death and the many lives his sacrifice touched.

At the beginning of the Artwalk, group members stood outside and handed out informational flyers about the x-50 project and promoted the Front Porch’s free concert.
