Local nonprofit Note-Able Music Therapy will be spreading holiday joy through song this weekend.

They're hosting an online event called the "Jingle Jangle Jolly Joy Jam" and are inviting people to log on and sing along to a catalog of holiday favorites.

"It's meant to be fun," said Development Director Sarah Tony with. "This is an at-home caroling party that will feature students, teachers and a dozen local musicians.

The therapy service focuses on the healing power of music.

"Music therapists are licensed and board certified, and there's decades of research backing up how music can be used as a tool," Tony said. "It really is a way to hack your own neurology and change how your brain works. Music is really a language of the brain and that's what our therapists are trained to do, to create lasting change for people."

The nonprofit serves around 2,000 people of all ages and abilities every year.

The Jam is free to join in and sing along, but the hope is to raise some much-needed funds as well.

"We will be asking people to consider a gift and we're looking for monthly donors, starting at $5 a month," Tony said. "When we all come together to do little things, big things happen. The goal is to get 300 monthly donors, and everyone who signs up will be entered in a raffle for a night at Crystal Bay."

The event starts at 3:30 on Saturday, December 19.
