You Can Help Support An Indie Musician In Her Battle With Cancer
Gina Violina is a puppeteer, singer and, as you might have guessed, violinist living in central California. As part of the duo Hibbetty Skibbitty, she has entertained folks with gypsy-flavored American standards and gorgeous hand-crafted puppets. She's shared her artistic gifts with many people, but the folks who created this site value the gift of her friendship above all.
Recently, Gina has found herself in a very serious battle with cancer. The stress of this Herculean effort is made worse by the financial strain that often comes hand in hand with being an independent artist -- especially when illness and the need to rest and heal make it impossible to earn a living as a performer. We've created Gina Violina's Ongoing Health Fund to raise financial assistance for Gina so that she can focus on healing and not have to worry about groceries, bills and the mundane troubles that rapidly intensify without a steady income.
If you love Gina, if you support independent musicians and artists, or if you'd like to honor someone you know who has struggled with cancer, we urge you to contribute whatever you can.
