Charity Highlight - Hungry for Music
During the month of November, I am going to be highlighting different charities that are involved somehow with music.
The next charity I want to highlight is Hungry for Music. The Hungry for Music story began in 1992, when Founder and Director Jeff Campbell (in photo) organized a street musician concert to benefit the homeless. Within three years, he formed a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, dedicated to expanding opportunities in music for children.
Since then, Hungry for Music has placed more than 16,000 instruments into the hands of aspiring musicians. Children whose trajectory has been altered by the uplifting and life-changing gift of music.

Charity Highlight - The Roots of Music
During the month of November, I am going to be highlighting different charities that are involved somehow with music.
The next charity I want to highlight is The Roots of Music. The Roots of Music was created in 2007 during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, by Derrick Tabb, Grammy winner and CNN Hero. The Roots of Music is true to its name: they are the roots of music education and culture in their city. Tabb watched as many of their city’s music education programs did not come back in the wake of the storm and he knew that in order to save the lives of the city’s youth as well as its culture, he had to create a space for youth and music to thrive. From its humble beginnings as a six-week drum camp at Tipitina’s, a bar and music venue, to being a $1 million dollar organization with three programs and full wrap-around support services, The Roots of Music has held true to the belief that music saves lives.
