Charity Highlight - The Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation


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 Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation. The Mr. Holland’s Opus Foundation keeps music alive in our schools by providing vital support services to school districts, and new musical instruments to underfunded music programs nationwide, giving economically-disadvantaged youth access to the many benefits of music education, leading them to success in school, and inspiring creativity and expression through playing music.

Charity Highlight - Musicians Without Borders


During the month of November I am going to be highlighting different charities that are involved somehow with music.

The first charity I want to highlight is Musicians Without Borders. Musicians Without Borders was founded in 1999 and has done work in Europe, Central Eastern Asia, and Central America. They work with local musicians and organizations to build sustainable programs around the world. They use music as a tool to build connections, foster empathy and shape communities. Studies have shown that music is a powerful tool that can influence behavior, shape culture and strengthen social bonds. They use music as a means to address the needs of societies divided and affected by conflict.
