Your generosity can motivate friends, family, and colleagues to do the same. The more friends that can contribute to our growing network of supports, the more students we can support.
Music lives in all of our lives. It has been the backdrop to the most mundane to the most important moments of our lives. We listen to it while we wander the grocery store aisles or while we walk in the woods. We share songs with loved ones to say what we can’t. Music is as old as humanity itself.
Music is not a luxury, it is a necessity.
Help keep music education thriving in the Berkshires.
