Music lessons should not depend on a family's budget.

  • Need-based tuition support

    Proposed reduced or no-cost lessons for families who need it.

  • Church-sponsored cohorts

    Proposed groups a congregation could underwrite for its community.

  • Instrument lending

    An idea under review for students without an instrument at home.
