Letter from the Chairman of the Board
Dear Friends:
The year 2009 was a bittersweet one for Health Alliance for Austin Musicians.
This year the organization’s roots grew deeper, and its reach widened.
I am proud to report that in just five years, HAAM has served nearly
2,000 musicians, many of whom tell us that HAAM has saved their lives.
However, in October the loss of Robin R. Shivers, the founder and driving
force behind the creation and success of HAAM, was devastating. It was
Robin’s dream to find affordable healthcare services for Austin’s low-
income, uninsured working musicians, and she did just that. With HAAM
Robin created a first-of-its-kind model for bringing community resources
together to support musicians, who are an integral part of Austin’s
economy and culture. We are indebted to Robin for her vision, initiative
and leadership. She set the organization up for success and left us with an
amazing foundation from which we can grow. Our board of directors and
staff members are dedicated to not only continuing the services that Robin
built but also strengthening and growing the organization into one that will
make Robin proud. I hope you will take a moment to read the stories about
Robin throughout this report. She had a tremendous impact on us all.
The year was one of growth for HAAM. Our affiliate service providers, Seton
Family of Hospitals, St. David’s Foundation and The SIMS Foundation,
provided more care to more musicians than prior years. Additionally, we launched a new hearing health program after
musicians told us that this service was crucial for their profession but financially out of reach. Thanks to grants from The
Cain Foundation and Austin Community Foundation, The HEAR Project, with affiliate service provider Estes Audiology,
began in August. At quarterly clinics, musicians receive education and are screened and fit for custom earplugs. The
response has been tremendous. One musician told us, “I’ve been exposing my most important musical asset to excessive
sound levels for years. I’m looking forward to keeping the remainder of my hearing intact.”
The growth in demand for services and support from the community allowed HAAM to hire its second full-time employee
in 2009. We welcome Jennifer Stowe as assistant director of services. We also saw changes on the board of directors.
I want to extend my sincere thanks to board members Carol Clark, Marsha Cook and Jesus Garza, whose service
guided HAAM from infancy until now. Thank you for your many gifts! Welcome to new board members Chris Adams,
Earl Maxwell, Madge Vasquez and Howard Yancy.
I continue to be inspired by the generosity of the Austin community. You turned out in record numbers for Corporate
Battle of the Bands and HAAM Benefit Day. You bring HAAM’s mission to life with your gifts. A special thank-you goes to
Marcia Ball, who chose HAAM as a beneficiary of her birthday bash. Marcia introduced her friends and fans from around
the world to HAAM, and we are grateful to all who attended and contributed. We hope you’ll join us for our 2010 special
events: Corporate Battle of the Bands, Tuesday, April 20, and the fifth HAAM Benefit Day on Tuesday, September 21.
As 2009 comes to an end, so does my term as chairman. It has been an honor to serve in this position. The work of HAAM
is incredibly important to our community. I love the abundance of live music in Austin, but even more important, what
drew me to board service was knowing how important music is to Austin’s economic well-being. HAAM is in an excellent
financial and organizational position as we go forward. We have nearly a year’s worth of reserves and are known across
the country as a successful model for community health care. Please join me in welcoming Tim Taylor of Jackson Walker
LLP as HAAM’s new chairman of the board. Tim has been at the front of the efforts to make every HAAM Benefit Day
bigger and better than the last. He has a proven record of leadership, and he is the ideal candidate to lead HAAM in the
years ahead.
In 2010 HAAM celebrates its fifth anniversary. Knowing Robin, she probably did imagine how strong an organization
HAAM would be in only five years. We will continue her legacy into the future and keep music in Austin alive and well!
— Richard Topfer
HAAM founder Robin R. Shivers –A gem as rare as the pearls she often wore
Health Alliance for Austin Musicians • Annual Report 2009
“I never knew a more authentic or
finer person than Robin. She was
humble, wise and her capacity to
give and share was enormous. She
was ‘a bright light’ for our community.
I remember Robin talking to my
brother, Clifford, years ago about
finding health care for Austin’s
musicians. Robin was determined.
Robin created a great model with
HAAM and planned it so well that the
organization will last forever. There
is nothing comparable to HAAM
anywhere else in the country. It is
because of Robin Shivers that HAAM
is a reality.”
— Susan Antone, Antone’s Nightclub

HAAM is a special-project fund of the Austin Community Foundation.
“What Robin started with HAAM is a beautiful thing.
Some musicians haven’t been to a doctor since they were
a kid. Now with HAAM’s help, they are getting health
issues caught early because they went in for a routine
checkup. Before HAAM most musicians had a ‘don’t get
sick’ policy; now should something happen, we have
somewhere to get help.”
— Carolyn Wonderland, musician
“I had been meeting with a group of people for about a
month to talk about how we could help musicians access
health care. Then I got a phone call from Robin. She said,
‘I hear you’ve been working on a plan to help musicians
with their health care. Would you come to a meeting I’ve
put together?’ Overnight HAAM was born. Robin was
able to bring key leaders to the table, and they had very
real healthcare services and were ready to make them
available to musicians. Through the generosity of Seton
and St. David’s, we immediately had 500 spots for health
and dental care for musicians. Now HAAM has helped
nearly 2,000 musicians. HAAM is Robin’s legacy. Robin
understood the importance of bettering the Austin music
community, and we are all better for having known her.”
— Ray Benson, musician/producer, Asleep at the Wheel
Health Alliance for Austin Musicians • Annual Report 2009
HAAM Benefit Day
“We don’t have a storefront, so we did in-store tastings at
the two Austin Whole Foods Markets and donated 100%
of the Benefit Day sales from these stores. This year sales
were double what they would normally be on a weekday.
In addition to being more effective than print advertising,
participating in HAAM Benefit Day is a whole lot more
fun! It allows our customers and our company to give
back to the people who make our hometown one of a
kind. We love HAAM!”
— Amy Ramm, founder, NadaMoo!
The fourth annual HAAM Benefit Day held on Tuesday,
September 22, was a citywide celebration of live music
and the talented musicians who make Austin and its
culture so rich. Nearly 200 Austin-area businesses
showed their support by pledging 5 percent of the day’s
proceeds or making cash donations to HAAM. More than
100 musical acts, most with members who belong to
HAAM, performed at businesses throughout the city to
increase sales and raise awareness about HAAM’s mission.
Topfer Family Foundation showed its support with a grant
(up to $25,000) that matched all individual donations on
HAAM Benefit Day. Even on a very rainy day in Austin,
the community showed great generosity with individual
donations well exceeding the matching grant. Altogether
2009 HAAM Benefit Day raised $164,000 for musicians’
health. Thank you, Austin!
HAAM invites all businesses, residents and musical acts
to participate in the fifth HAAM Benefit Day on Tuesday,
Sept. 21, 2010.

“Robin Shivers was like Batman. She was
Bruce Wayne, and then she was secretly
saving lives but never wanted the credit
because she thought it would distract. She
had a bigger picture of things. She had the
warmest heart for this world of anyone I have
ever met in my life. As my manager, she had a
plan for me and my career. She said she was
going to figure out how to get me health care.
I told her that was not really possible unless I
got really rich. But she did it. She built HAAM
so that self-employed, low-income, uninsured
working musicians like me would be able to
access affordable health care.”
— Troy Campbell, musician/producer
Corporate Battle of the Bands
“Because we love music and appreciate the gift that local
musicians give us, we support HAAM’s mission to help provide
healthcare services to these artists. We want to challenge our
peers to join in. It’s not only an important fundraiser; it’s a
great way to celebrate our legacy and privilege of living in the
Live Music Capital of the World. We had a blast at last year’s
event, and we can’t wait until April 20, 2010!”
— Jason Rhode, president and CEO of Cirrus Logic
The second annual Corporate Battle of the Bands fundraiser
and concert was held Tuesday, April 21. Eleven bands made
up of business professionals who play music as a hobby
competed against each other in front of celebrity judges
and a packed house at Antone’s to raise awareness and
funds for HAAM.
Congratulations to all of this year’s participants — you were
great! A special thank-you to presenting sponsors Cirrus Logic
and Jackson Walker LLP and event cochairs Dan Connolly and
Lisa Hickey for your leadership of the event!
HAAM invites business professionals who love to play live
music to join in the 2010 Corporate Battle of the Bands on
Tuesday, April 20.

“I first noticed Robin because she was always front and center at important
events for good causes. She was someone I could call if I needed help moving
an idea forward, a problem solver. So when Robin decided to become involved
with music management, she immediately focused on a crucial issue facing
all musicians — the need for affordable health care. She pursued her vision, a
Health Alliance for Austin Musicians, with her usual formidable energy, and she
carried the entire music community and Austin at large with her until she had
achieved her goal. Robin contributed in many ways toward improving Austin’s
quality of life, but in creating HAAM, she found a way to save lives, and gifts
don’t get any bigger than that.”

“It really seems as though Robin
did the impossible when she
created HAAM. I know musicians
who have had broken bones and
not gone to a doctor because
they fear they cannot afford it.
HAAM is like a dream come true.
Musicians can get their basic
health care needs met affordably.
HAAM is an amazing gift.”
— Gurf Morlix, musician/producer
“Robin knew I was interested in helping musicians find
resources for health care. She would say, ‘I’m working on
something, and I want you to be involved.’ I didn’t really
believe she could pull off something like HAAM. Then Robin
invited me to a meeting and laid out the entire business plan.
I was overwhelmed! I wondered what the catch was — and if
it could be sustained. My skepticism was for naught. Robin
had a vision and a master plan. She built a foundation for
HAAM that will only strengthen and grow. HAAM is one of
the most rewarding organizations that I have been a part of.”

“Robin didn’t have to take this on. She saw a need
in the music community and dedicated herself to
making it happen. Robin was open, generous and
community-minded. Because of her efforts, I was able
to get treatment for a potentially life-threatening
emergency hernia. I am very grateful to HAAM and
