Empower tomorrow's creative leaders.
We’re on a mission to bring music into the classrooms of the 19,100 schools who can’t afford it.
You can join us! No matter how much you give, every cent funds interactive music studio projects for rural and inner-city communities worldwide.
$10 covers the cost of studio time for 1 student!

OUR MODEL FOR IMPACT
• Provide free music production workshops to communities by bringing gear and instructors directly to the kids who need it most.
• Host a yearly immersive camp that kids attend on scholarship to dive deeper into creating music with modern tools and sharing that with the world.
• Set up studio installations at events and festivals for multi-generational shared creation.
• Offer free gear and ongoing 1-on-1 mentorship to help underserved young people via Zoom to build up learners in hard to reach spaces

They focus on building educator bases and developing long term relationships with spaces who have access to underserved youth in rural and inner city areas.
Our programming is dedicated to music empowerment.
We believe that:
-
no sound is a bad sound
-
everything is an instrument
-
access to music making tools can help us find purpose, collaboration, community, and a vehicle for expressing/comprehending our feelings for sustained optimistic mental health
