On “Lenz On Business,” we often take a look at folks who are using business to make a difference in the world, and this week’s guests do just that. Their work has an incredibly positive impact on the community, and they do this in a big way through the power of music. Amplify My Community is a nonprofit that produces concerts and festivals in order to raise money for other nonprofits working to alleviate homelessness and poverty on the local level. Its signature event is the Amplify Decatur Music Festival, which is presented by Lenz and produced in partnership with Eddie’s Attic. It includes four days of musical events, taking place April 11-14 on and around the Downtown Decatur Square in Decatur, Georgia. The big Amplify Decatur Music Festival ticketed event drops Saturday, April 13 in the Decatur Square. The show features Melissa Etheridge, Dawes, The Blind Boys of Alabama, Run Katie Run, and Jitterbug. You can learn more and purchase tickets by visiting amplifydecatur.org.
