Open Hearts On Tour stands in support of the Black Lives Matter demonstrations throughout our country and the world.

The catalyst for these protests was the death, while in police custody, of George Floyd — layered upon decades and centuries of violence, abuse, and inequities that Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) and LGBTQ people have experienced — at the hands of police, authorities, and the systems that govern and serve our societies.

Not everyone can physically march. However, each one of us has a critical role to play in creating a more peaceful, just, and compassionate world — in our personal and public lives.

Pursuit of a truly equitable and level ‘playing field’ is unfolding before us in the current demonstrations — this must become a pivotal point in history. We all need to turn inward to address these issues; however, the onus falls first on those who benefit from white privilege.

The national and international crisis we are facing is challenging us all in ways we could not even imagine a few months ago. While most of us have never experienced anything like the COVID 19 crisis

Jeff McDonnell is the consummate performer. A charming, warm and witty Philadelphia-based musician, Jeff is a singer, pianist, arranger, and the Musical Director of Open Hearts on Tour.

Helene Broitman, managing director, exemplifies resiliency and compassion. After back surgery in 2014, Helene was partially paralyzed and rehabbed for six months in residential nursing facilities.

In 2018, we enjoyed working with many dedicated Activity Professionals, exceptional performers, and knowledgeable partners in aging and health services.
