steelpan music.<\/p><p>Her fondness for steelpan music began when she was a little girl and endured through to her adulthood when she became a bass pan player.<\/p><p>She spent more than 35 years as community organizer in the steelpan culture, especially as it related to youth who were drawn to the instrument. To these young people, she was \u201cAuntie Esther\u201d or \u201cMoms.\u201d She believed that steelbands had a responsibility to the young people in their care. She also advocated for family friendly panyards, or rehearsal spaces, where intergenerational learning could occur. And, she made sure that I was exposed to and learned the instrument from a young age.<\/p><p>Esther Dalton Foundation is the \u201clove legacy\u201d of my mother\u2019s hopes and beliefs. On this journey I am constantly reminded of one of her favourite phrases, \u201cTry yuh best!\u201d She would say those three words with all the fire and flavour that infuse the dialect of Trinidad and Tobago. Esther Dalton Foundation is built on that same tenacity.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ez083qx elementor-widget
