MISSION - WHAT WE DO

Guitars 4 Gifts is a 501(c)(3) organization that provides musical instruments to promote healing and communication.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

We are working to make sure that every student has access to the tools they need to complete a quality education in music. Many youth music programs are unable to secure instruments for their students to use. In addition, if a student is unable to afford an instrument of their own, they may be unable to fully participate in music classes. Our goal is to partner with these organizations to make sure that nothing is holding a student back from reaching their full potential

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Guitars 4 Gifts Classical Music Program Guitars 4 Gifts partners with after school youth music string ensembles to provide much needed instruments and teaching aids to underserved programs. Each program receives a violin and viola package with tuners, cases, bows, and more. This program was started in the fall of 2018, and is continuing through 2019. So far, we have provided over 40 instruments as a part of this program. This program works to fulfill the need of music education in schools where it is unavailable or underfunded. Music has been shown to increase standardized test scores and grades while helping people learn to communicate their emotions and cope with anxiety. Guitars 4 Gifts Veteran Program Guitars 4 Gifts works with music therapy programs that serve veterans to provide an instrument of choice to the veterans that take part in their program. Music can help anyone cope with anxiety, PTSD, depression, and more. By providing musical instruments to veterans, we hope to help continue this mission. Guitars 4 Gifts Youth Rock Program Guitars 4 Gifts works with forward thinking organizations that create songwriting or commercial music programs for teens. These programs help teens deal with anxiety, bullying, stress, sexual assault, and more. Programs can receive guitars, percussion instruments, and other instruments for students who are unable to afford their own use or keep. G4G International Program Guitars 4 Gifts partners with mission trips who are focused on education and the arts to provide instruments to schools outside of North America. The goal of this program is to make sure schools everywhere have access to the tools they need to teach music.
