Wheaton | Bekins has been a partner of Give Kids The World for more than 20 years. Through the van line network's generous support of Keaton’s Korral, 8,000 families each year experience the fun of horse and pony rides, as they don western bandanas and live out their cowboy dreams, regardless of their abilities. 

​

We've been THRILLED with the response to our Truck Pull fundraisers for GKTW over the past 3 years, but since February is a tough month to plan an outdoor event, our newest fundraiser for Give Kids The World, will be a Dueling Pianos singalong.

​

If you attended the Dueling Pianos event with Sales Training Summit this year, you know this event is a favorite. Attendees nominated each other to get up and sing alongside the pianists. This event is NOT to be confused with karaoke, since participating singers will be singing along with professional singers rather than on their own!

 

Further description of the event is below.

The Hotel Carmichael is famous for celebrating the Great American Songbook, and live music will play a role in our After Party Thursday from 9-11 once the Awards Gala concludes. 

Local musicians will go head-to-head in a Dueling Pianos session... with a twist. The event will be a fundraiser for Give Kids The World:

 

• Individuals will be able to donate money to get other attendees - including van line employees - to sing!

  • For a $100 donation, the participant will sing a song of their own choice.

  • For a $250 donation, the participant will sing a song of the donor's choice.

  • For a $500 donation, the participant will sing and dance to a song of the donor's choice.

  • For a $1,000 donation, the donor can choose two participating singers to perform a duet.

  • Each participant will sing only one song, so if two or more donors want to choose that person's song or duet partner, the question of song choice and singer will go to an in-person auction.

 

You may make your donation in person at the event or via the registration form.
