Help change the lives of youth in a community near you.
Every kid deserves a chance to discover the magic of music. Unfortunately, too many schools can’t afford creative programs or don't cover modern music making methods that most of today's youth are interested in.
We send local producers and MCs into schools to teach music production workshops to young students. When students want to keep learning, we connect them with mentors — both online &or in person — to help them continue their growth.

The Community Fund
A way for everyone to support. 100% goes to studio mentorships.
Give $8 per month towards mentoring a student in your community who wants to pursue a life in music. If mentees aren't signed up, we will use the funds for more workshops to help meet aspiring creators.
2026 Goal: 125 Members Per Branch
The Industry Fund
Music venues, touring musicians, local businesses and private donors are rallied to become our Industry Champions, supporting the cause by donating $1 per ticket sale to help fund a Boredomfighters chapter in your area. This is the first step to bringing workshops to your community.
This generous donation covers operational costs for equipment and ongoing free workshops in local schools and community centers who serve youth that are historically disadvantaged.
Local Impact Projects
After the stage is set & The Community Fund is helping build young creators, that local team works with our nationwide ecosystem of touring artists, educators, and coordinators.
We then can all collaborate with the school districts to inspire, educate, and activate local youth in their local music industry.
How Does It Work?!
The Community Fund
Once an Industry Fund is established in an area and raises enough for the branch to start running studio sessions, we can start to meet kids who need support.
We provide those kids with mentorships using funds raised by fans who donate $8/month or more.
Local Activation Breakdown
We educate youth through two main activations:
Community Workshops & Personal Mentorships.
Community Workshops
We bring the activation to the classroom - teaming up with schools, community centers, and learning establishments to activate up to 250 students per session.

Personal Mentorships
When students show an elevated amount of interest, we offer them free personal mentorships to help them further develop their skills and activate into the local community.
Through our Industry Fund, local branches acquire studio gear and bring workshops & studio assemblies to schools.
In those assemblies, we meet students who want to pursue further learning, then connect them with a mentor for the school year.
100% of the amount raised by the Community Fund is used for those mentorships.
Every time someone joins the Community Fund, they sponsor another student who wants to pursue a life in music.

Our three-step process to success helps us ensure that youth can be supported throughout their whole journey, from novice noise maker to expert earbender.
OUR PROCESS:
HOW WE INSPIRE
We team up with schools, youth centers, community groups, and events to bring our Instrument Garden Studio Workshop directly to the kids. This workshop introduces the art of music production by helping participants create beats, melodies, and vocals that get transformed into their own custom song, live before their eyes.

STEP THREE:

As you conduct workshops you will meet kids who want to learn more. With The Community Fund, we give folks a way to support that by pledging a small donation every month that is exclusively used for mentor hours, providing free 10 month learning tracks to kids in tough situations.
For every $8/mo member in the Community Fund, you generate 2 mentor hours for that school year.
