Empowering youth through music since 2008.
Our nonprofit is dedicated to accessible arts education that empowers our youth and builds resilience. Through the transformative power of music, we inspire kids of all ages to reach their full potential, regardless of their economic background, geographic location, and other life circumstances. We have impacted well over 10,000 youth in our 17 year history–nearly 1000 of those students just last year–via our after school programming, summer camps, and outreach programming.
This Idaho Gives, we are raising money for our student scholarship fund and for our outreach program. We never turn anyone away for inability to pay and scholarship hundreds of students every year. In 2024, we provided over $45,000 in student scholarships. Under our outreach program, Rock On Wheels, we bring critical music education to underserved communities (ie. St. Luke’s Children’s Hospital, Ada County Detention Center, Camp Rainbow Gold, Foster and Heart, and more!).
However, we can’t do it alone! We need your help to ensure that every child who dreams of making music has the opportunity to do so.
By donating to our cause, you’re not just giving money – you’re giving hope. You’re investing in the future of our community and you’re empowering the next generation to believe in themselves and their potential to change the world through art.
Your contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a tangible difference on the lives of deserving youth. It will provide music lessons, instruments, and opportunities that they might otherwise never have.
Join us during Idaho Gives to support our student scholarship fund and our impactful outreach programming. Your support will help break down barriers, open doors, and unleash the boundless creativity that lies within the each and every one of the youth that we serve.
