Lilyana Roman who lives in Manchester New Hampshire is being called a young girl with a heart of gold who is raising money for front line employees by playing the ukulele instrument in her parents front yard. She must have impressed a lot of her neighbors since when the word got out that was raising money for the heroes who are battling the victims of the Coronavirus pandemic, she was able to raise $4,000 dollars that was donated to officials of the Elliot Hospital in Manchester. I have heard of young children and teens either singing or playing instruments like trumpets to inspire their neighbors to be happy, When I think of an artist playing the ukulele was of the late actor Emmett Lynn who had a small part of the Three Stooges video short western "Shot In The Frontier."

By George Bernard Vieto @Deepizzaguy She is very special for wanting to give back to those that are helping others in this hard time. That is so great that others wanted to help donate money.

That is true since there are not many ukulele players that are known for being using their musical talent to raise money for the first responders that I know of.
