Jazz Bridge

Over the years, these women had witnessed the struggles of their fellow musicians and the desperation felt by the music community when the only available remedy to hardship was the traditional jam session to raise money.

Seeking a more permanent support system, Simon and Cloud began to assemble like minded musicians and fans to form The Jazz Bridge Project, the organization's official name.

Board members have included Chris Sanchirico, Carol Rogers, Jeff Duperon, Rhenda Fearrington, Mike Boone, Wendy Simon, Jim Miller, and Bob Perkins.

[4] Executive Director Suzanne Cloud has also received the Martin Luther King Jr. Freedom Medal from the Camden County Freeholders[5] and the Rutgers Chancellor Award for Civic Engagement for her work with Jazz Bridge.

[7] Jazz Bridge presents over 48 neighborhood concerts throughout the Delaware Valley every year from October through May in Collingswood,[8] Willingboro, Philadelphia, Rosemont,[9] and Cheltenham.
