HEALTH ALLIANCE FOR AUSTIN MUSICIANS

Word on the Street

"The staff at the Health Alliance has proven to be an incredible resource for not only my own personal health care, but it GREATLY aided me in navigating the red tape of CHIP and Medicaid for my 11-year-old son. Thanks to its help, Ellar has health coverage for the first time in 6 years." - Bruce Salmon, keyboardist

HAAM Benefit Day is a uniquely Austin event where businesses donate 5% of the day's proceeds to HAAM to support musicians' health. Musicians, most of whom are HAAM members, perform throughout the day at retail stores, outside stages, City Hall and more. The event runs from 6am to well past midnight and community members are invited to shop, eat out, listen to great live music and enjoy!
