Supporting the Dream Behind Nat King Cole Generation Hope

Twin daughters of music legend Nat King Cole, Timolin and Casey Cole of Boca Raton, launched Nat King Cole Generation Hope, Inc. in 2008 to honor the legacy, music and life of their father Nat King Cole and mother Maria Cole after learning of budget cuts in public schools directly affecting the arts.

Our season-ending Concert for a Cause supports Nat King Cole Generation Hope, a nonprofit founded by Timolin and Casey Cole, the twin daughters of legendary music icon Nat King Cole.

Rooted in their father’s legacy of musical excellence and cultural influence, the organization believes that music education is not a privilege—it’s an essential right for all children.

Based in Palm Beach County, Nat King Cole Generation Hope funds music programming, mentorship, and instruments for children who otherwise would have none—while supporting the work of dedicated music teachers.

One of their signature efforts is Summer Strings at Lynn University, a two-week music camp where students from underserved communities receive intensive musical training and mentorship from professional musicians and educators.

Online ticket sales will close at midnight the night before each concert.

Tickets will still be available for purchase at the door unless the event is marked as sold out online.

Based in Pasadena, California, Dr. Robles is a performing arts instructor at Harvard-Westlake School and music director at Neighborhood Unitarian Universalist Church.

She has also held influential roles with Street Symphony, the USC Thornton School of Music, and the Los Angeles County High School for the Arts (LACHSA).

As a vocalist, she has performed internationally and contributed to major film, television, and video game soundtracks, including Frozen 2, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War.
