The Gift of Music Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to creating greater accessibility to music programs, instruments, teachers and the overall benefits of music education.
Founded in 2015 as a response to an ongoing nationwide decline of funding and lack of prioritization for music education, our organization is diligently working to return music to the country’s at-risk youths by forming critical partnerships with music teachers, public schools and organizations to reinforce our core value: Because music matters!

What We Do
Access To Instruments
We serve students through our special reduced-price and free-instrument programs for those who qualify! We can also provide top-quality student rental instruments at competitive prices featuring many leading instrument brands. See our instrument options.
Donate an Instrument
Musical Instruments are the lifeblood of our mission. If you have an unused musical instrument of any type, donate to The Gift of Music Foundation and we’ll make sure it is used to provide instruments to kids who may not otherwise be able to afford them.
