"I remember when Kelly first contacted me (2007) and explained what he was doing with Music for Mankind. I thought his work and his story would make a nice little program. I was wrong. Kelly, his music and his work across the world have now been the subject of five programs. With each program, we've learned something new about the hungry in our own State and around the globe. And we've learned that a man and his music can begin to change the world."
--Will Mikell, Producer, Across The Fence, WCAX TV (CBS), Burlington, VT

"You have raised an extraordinary amount of awareness through your concerts. Your enthusiasm is contagious. I think you're an example that all of us could follow."

Thank you very much for your presentation and the inspiration of your work. The students thoroughly enjoyed hearing your stories and, being an international audience, certainly felt that your initiatives addressed many issues people in their home countries face daily.
I think that bringing these facts to the table is essential, but to actively do something to bring about change is what is needed most. The majority of people are too focused on making their own ends meet and therefore tend not to reach out. Thank you for breaking that cycle and for inspiring others to do the same.
--Anja Pfeffer, Director, International Club, Mount Anthony Union High School, Bennington, VT

--Steve Morgan, Hampshire Shakespeare Festival

“Melodic guitar lines, lush arrangements, and a super-positive attitude toward life.”
--Steve Lemke, Burlington Free Press
Kelly has been able to use one of his passions to help some of the world's most desperate people. He truly is doing remarkable work and deserves our full support! My students were shocked to learn the scope of worldwide hunger but excited that one person can make such a difference. They left Kelly's presentation a bit disturbed and very inspired.
