Introducing one of our 2024 Dear Jack Matt Cwiertny Music Education Scholars: Lillian Knecht! Diagnosed with Osteosarcoma during her senior year of high school, Lily found strength in the universal language of music. Now a senior at Queens University of Charlotte, she's majoring in music therapy and hopes to support pediatric oncology patients. Her journey showcases the power of resilience and music's healing touch. From battling cancer to uplifting others at our recent gala, Lily's story is a beautiful full-circle moment and we're so proud of her! A huge THANK YOU to the Dear Jack Foundation for their support and for making this scholarship possible. Your efforts help survivors like Lily turn scars into stars, using music to inspire and heal. We are so grateful for your continued partnership! #DearJackFoundation #MusicTherapy #CancerSurvivor #HealingThroughMusic #Scholarship #Inspiration
