That moment when you get your first guitar... We always love to see the excitement on a person’s face when they are surprised with their first instrument. We recently had the chance to partner with @girlswritenashville and provide five @recordingkingofficial guitars, @kysermusicalproducts capos, @twooldhippies gig bags, @fishmanmusic tuners, @daddarioandco strings and straps, and @alfred_music basic guitar books to give the hardworking girls in their program. Last Saturday these girls released an album they have been working on since January. Congratulations on the album release girls! #inspirationalquotes #femalefounders #fingerstyleguitar #womenempowerment #guitars4gifts #nashville #smallactsofkindness
We love seeing kid’s smiling faces when they receive an instrument! Many of the programs we provide instruments to focus not only on music, but on leadership and life skills as well. #femalefounders #nonprofitorganization #fortworth #smallactsofkindness #violinist #socialchange #guitars4gifts Photo by @bsharpyouthmusic
“Music helps students' self image improves, they learn to self analyze, they learn grit and perseverance, working together in a group and supporting one another on this musical journey.” -Sistema Utah #womenfounders #femalefounders #discoverunder10k #inspirationalthoughts #nonprofitorganization #guitars4gifts #nashville
This year, we have been able to provide over 50 musical instruments across 20 states. We have been overwhelmed by the support we have received as we slowly reach our goals of providing 100 instruments by the end of the year. It is amazing what can be accomplished when we work together and support other non-profit programs! We recently provided a couple violins and violas to the Dayton Performing Arts Alliance. We are so excited to be able to help music programs get the tools they need. #motivationalmonday #womenfounders #femalefounders #discoverunder1k #inspirationalthoughts #guitars4gifts
From one of our recipients, California Symphony/Sound Minds. Every kid deserves to have their own instrument! #california #nonprofitorganization #socialchange #musiceducator #guitars4gifts #makemusic
#throwbackthursday to receiving this thank you note from @3chordsorg after we provided the refugee teens in their program a couple ukuleles. We still love listening to the CD they recorded of original music! #refugees #guitars4gifts #guitaristsofinstagram #nashvillesongwriter #inspirationalthoughts #acousticguitars
“One child’s dad is in prison and visits her once a month. She said he gives her $1 when she plays her violin for him!” These stories of mentoring and social development permeate our program on a regular basis. As covered by NPR, “Scores of orchestras across America do some kind of music-education outreach. But few of them are embedded in the life of a school three days a week.” - California Symphony Sound Minds (one of our recipient organizations). #musiceducator #nonprofitorganization #socialchange #socialchangemakers #california #guitars4gifts
