SHINE Foundation

The SHINE Music Foundation has provided educational opportunities for hundreds of York County

residents for years. Peter Bottros has fostered an educational setting where students can learn music,

and the rare opportunity to perform and showcase their talents. Peter has the unique ability to

orchestrate music and transform students’ raw talent into concerts and shows. The SHINE Music

Foundation has offered an outlet for kids, adults, veterans and others to learn and be a part of

something special – at no cost.

Peter’s passion and drive to provide the community with music and education has already had a large

impact. But Peter’s dream has always been to have a location for SHINE in downtown York. That dream is

came to fruition at the end of 2024, however, he can use as much help from the York Community as possible.

His new location – not far from the WGC office – will be on the square, where Peter believes he can best

impact York, and gain the most traction/exposure. At a time when most school districts are continuing to

cut music education budgets, Peter has a coalition of teachers across the County ready to make kids SHINE!
