After analyzing over 50 organizations at the national level, we realized that we all have one thing in common:
At LMFMW, we bring dynamic leadership to this initiative. We recognize and respect the vast experience of other organizations in the music education space.
A coordinated, national effort will shift the narrative around music education. By synchronizing efforts, we can leverage resources and expertise to amplify our collective impact … and fast.
Relying on philanthropy and private funding often leads to inconsistent support for music education programs. Government funding provides a stable, equitable foundation that offeres every student, regardless of background, access to quality music education.
At LMFMW, we aim to serve as a backbone funder and convener for all organizations advocating for music education, bringing them together to build a cohesive and sustainable approach.
Through partnership and collaboration, we can build a cohesive, national movement to provide Americans and policymakers a clear understanding of the value of music to youth.
Uneven and insufficient access to music education is the problem we
all want to solve ... and we have strength in numbers. Together, let’s
turn up the volume. Music is not extracurricular - it’s foundational -
and let’s make sure everyone hears it!
