Let’s Play Music Fund


May 24, 2021
Due to recently updated CDC mask guidelines, Give A Note is pausing the Let’s Play Music Fund initiative to further evaluate how to best help students reengage with music in school.

 
Give A Note established the Let’s Play Music Fund in cooperation with our partners at Southeastern Performance Apparel, the National Educational Music Co., and Practicing Musician to provide The Instrument Mask™, Voice Mask™ and protective bell covers to K-12 public school music programs in need.
