HOPE E. DALEY
"Our voice is our song. Our Song For Life"
Hope E. Daley is the Founder of "A Song for Life" Project. Being a motherly figure, when "your child" is in need, you stop at nothing to care and stand for them. After aspiring artist "C-Jay" was aimlessly shot on his way to vocal class, Hope started a movement to help victims of senseless violence. Hope is a graduate of SUNY Paltz, and Columbia University. She has single handedly put together incredible events around the Tri-State area for company functions, events and activities, Marketing and Promotions, and musical engagements. There is a song for everyone. A melody to be sang. A song for life.
