Empower Youth Against Hate

In early January we were elated to learn that Music in Common was awarded a $159,000 federal grant to produce multiple JAMMS programs throughout the country beginning immediately. Then, on June 26th, the grant was revoked by the Trump administration.

The news was crippling, but, determined to stay the course we launched the #EmpowerYouthAgainstHate Campaign in July. Fueled by people around the country who believe in Music in Common to create real and lasting change, we have raised nearly 26% of our $159,000 goal in the first 8 weeks.

We invite you to explore our website for information and news on our programs, including videos, images, and more. We urge you to join us in recouping the lost funds for these vital programs by participating in any of the events and activities below and by sharing the campaign with friends, family, and colleagues.

Please don't hesitate to email us with questions, ideas, or comments. THANK YOU!
