In its 3rd year, the event was created by Trisha Friend to promote awareness of women’s cancers and to give back to a non-profit organization, the Karla J Williams Foundation, an organization that helps female cancer patients and their families. Trisha wanted to share her love of jazz, particularly the saxophone, with all her friends and fellow jazz lovers in the Sacramento area.
