Hungry for Music

This week Try Change brings you yet another opportunity to help those in need. We bring to you Hungry for Music. Hungry For Music is a grassroots volunteer-driven 501 (c)(3) charity organization with a nationwide and international outreach. Hungry for Music's mission is to inspire underprivileged children (and others) by bringing positive musical and creative experiences into their lives. Since becoming a non-profit in 1994, Hungry for Music has brought the healing quality of music to thousands of people through its musical instrument donations, concerts, and workshops. They support their programs through memberships, benefit concerts and events, raffles, and the sale of Hungry for Music produced compact discs.

Their goal for 2008 is to distribute 365 musical instruments to individual children in need, school programs, and after-school community centers. As of April 15, , Hungry for Music has donated 53 musical instruments to individuals, schools, and music programs.

You can assit Hungry for Music by attending the 13th Annual Hungry for Crawfish Music and MudBug Bash on Saturday May 17th 12-5pm Rain or Shine at Ft. Hunt Park, Area A in Alexandria, VA.
