Music. Community. Hope.
Bringing our community together to raise funds for those affected by cancer.
What is Harmony for Hope?
A community tradition born from gratitude.
Harmony for Hope is an independent nonprofit organization based in Western Pennsylvania. What began as a single community benefit concert — inspired by Noah Schiemer's courageous battle with cancer — has grown into a movement. We bring people together through the power of live music to raise funds for organizations making a real difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.
Noah's journey inspired a community to come together.
Our Story
Born from gratitude. Built on community.
When Noah Schiemer — son of the owners of Brighton Music Center — successfully battled cancer, his family witnessed firsthand the extraordinary care and compassion provided by UPMC Hillman Cancer Center. Overwhelmed with gratitude, they asked themselves: how do we give back? The answer was music. The first Harmony for Hope concert was a celebration of life, community, and the healing power of coming together. Today, that spirit lives on in everything we do.
Our Mission
Connect. Inspire. Give.
Harmony for Hope exists to connect communities through music, inspire hope, and spread love while raising funds that directly support organizations making a difference in the lives of those affected by cancer. Every dollar raised is donated to our annual beneficiary.
