HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Nancy Earle and Cody Wheatley
Nancy Earle and Cody Wheatley founded the Star Jasmine Music Foundation in 1997. They were looking for a way to find solace through music. It began as a tribute to Nancy’s late daughter, Jasmine, who passed away in Yosemite National Forest at the age of ten. The foundation first manifested itself as a compilation album (featuring Dave Mason, Kenny Loggins, Steve Winwood, and many more) before growing into JAMS. Our nonprofit school dedicated to putting music in the hands of Santa Barbara’s at-risk youth. In loving memory of Jasmine
Together, we are building a strong and vibrant community.
A BIG thank you to our sponsors, supporters and volunteers – we couldn’t have done it without you. Magic happens when the community comes together for the greater good.
