No Ordinary Joe

Tickets are available now on the Decatur Education Foundation’s website for No Ordinary Joe which is set for Thursday, April 30 at 7pm. 

No Ordinary Joe is the annual fundraiser for Joe’s Fund that features some of Decatur High School’s most talented singers and musicians as they perform in a coffeehouse-style concert.  Enjoy an evening of live music under the stars at Waller’s Coffeehouse.

All funds raised at this event support Joe’s Fund, DEF’s student behavioral health fund. 

Joe’s Fund helped establish Student Centers at Decatur High School and Beacon Middle School.  These centers provide a safe space to address the behavioral health challenges faced by our youth ranging from anxiety and depression to substance abuse.  They offer students a respite from the stresses of the school day as well as individual and group sessions with dedicated counselors.

Grants from Joe’s Fund provide vital student behavioral health resources to the City Schools of Decatur and to local organizations working to:

-address substance use and addiction

-strengthen student mental health

-create safe, supportive spaces for students’ well-being

-installing inclusive outdoor play spaces

-implementing adaptable seating and learning supports for neurodivergent students, and

-introducing mindfulness practices into all CDS schools.

We hope you will get your tickets today and join us for this fun evening of live music!
