The Lee County (Florida) Community Band was incorporated as a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in 1982. There have been many changes along the way, but one thing has been kept constant – their commitment to bring quality musical entertainment to the Lee County Community and to never charge a fee to attend their concerts. They perform six concerts during any given season, which runs from November of the current year to April of the following year, to a near capacity audience at the auditorium of the Cape Coral High School. The band’s sixty plus members are amateurs, semi-professional and professional musicians who graciously volunteer their time and talent to share their love of music with our concert attendees, just as the original members of the Fort Myers Brass Band did over 130 years ago, making the band one of the oldest surviving community bands in the USA. 

American Corporate Partners (ACP) is a national nonprofit organization focused on helping returning veterans and active duty spouses find their next careers through one-on-one mentoring, networking and online career advice.

More than 1 million veterans are expected to transition from the armed forces to civilian life over the next five years. ACP engages the American people in a unique volunteer opportunity to provide career guidance to returning military as they transition back into civilian life.

ACP believes that the biggest issue facing our returning service members is not unemployment – it’s underemployment. ACP focuses on helping veterans and active duty spouses find meaningful employment opportunities and develop long-term careers.

My son and daughter-in-law both served in the U.S. Navy. My son benefited greatly from the services that ACP provides our military veterans – as such, I proudly volunteer as a mentor with ACP.
