Our mission
At Music Changing Lives, our mission is to offer the highest quality music and art enrichment programs paired with academic support to underprivileged and at-risk youth ages 5 and older. We work to improve their chances of achieving a positive and successful future and transform them into active and knowledgeable civic participants.
What we do
The Changing Lives Showcase is a 21-week afterschool enrichment program hosted directly on school campuses. The program focuses on increasing the district's graduation rates while providing a venue in which students can develop their artistic talents. Music, spoken word, creative arts, etc. are designed to draw out youth and their stories, which is the impetus for their purpose and priorities. Once youth identify their story, tell it - in whatever form they choose, then they can learn to give voice to the issues that matter to them and take action - which is the precipice from which they become civically engaged and want and know how to demand change. They begin to both identify their priorities, learn to organize and make a difference.
At the completion of the program, students who successfully achieve the program requirements are eligible to compete in a performing-arts competition to showcase their talents before their peers, family, friends, educators and community leaders and policymakers.
Testimonials
My marketing call with Amol, energized me like no other, the hour that we spent together has put me and my team on a strong path to launching a successful social media campaign. I thank you so much for your continued support and most importantly Catchafire and Annenberg for this amazing opportunity.
It was great connecting with Josiah and hearing about his vision for Music Changing Lives. Our brainstorm turned into several interesting ideas, he was open to ideas, and he has the passion to make is his vision a reality. The best part about these volunteer projects is making these kinds of connections. Thanks Josiah for brightening up my afternoon!
