Hi! We’re the Boredomfighters, The Nonprofit Modernizing Music Education.
We’re on a mission to #helpkidsmakebeats and empower disadvantaged youth to manifest sustainable futures in music.
The Problem
Kids are bored and unengaged
For ages, people in rural and underserved communities across the nation have been waking up bored and seeking their purpose.
​
Children are being molded along an assembly line into young adults who graduate high school with no clue that they could spend their life creatively and generating purpose in their community.

A lack of relevant music education in school systems
​Music education is stuck in the analog age and getting cut from school budgets. Teachers are scrambling to get young people re-engaged in the classroom post-COVID.

Uninspired kids gravitate towards dangerous coping mechanisms
We’ve seen firsthand the dangers of young people being disengaged at school and disconnected from their peers, and we believe that boredom is at the root of these dangerous coping mechanisms from involvement with gangs and drugs to a downward spiral of mental health issues.

The Solution

Create pathways for expression and purpose
We’ve dedicated ourselves to creating new pathways for creative expression & purpose for underserved communities.
Help kids make beats by providing workshops, camps, and mentorships
We empower local leaders to build teams that bring studios and knowledge directly to the kids who need it most.
​Fight boredom and reduce barriers to careers in music
This helps kids become engaged in learning and aware of their potential to create music and community events. Thus, fighting boredom… and empowering them to create sustainable futures for themselves doing something they love.
