Transforms lives by restoring, expanding, and innovating music education in our schools.

Music education changes lives, but only those of the students it reaches.

Sometimes it doesn’t reach students because their school has no teacher or instruments. Sometimes it doesn’t reach them because they can’t see a connection between their music program and music they know and love. Music Will removes these barriers.

We help schools build music programs that are as diverse as the students they serve. Programs that are innovative, inclusive, and culturally meaningful to students . We’ve served over 1,200,000 K-12 students across the country. We know the lifelong benefits that music can bring to students. Our work is to make sure that music will.

Delivering unconditional cash directly to the world's poorest households via secure mobile transfers. 

Since 2009, GiveDirectly has delivered more than $580 million in unconditional cash transfers to families in need. These one-time cash transfers allow recipients to invest in what they need most and have been shown to improve their earnings, children’s school attendance, health, nutrition, and mental well-being.
 
GiveDirectly uses government data to target villages where most or all residents are living in extreme poverty, defined by the World Bank as earning under $2.15/day. In-country GiveDirectly staff enroll one member of each household in the entire village to receive a one-time transfer of about $1,000 USD sent in two installments using mobile money. Recipients can then withdraw the mobile funds as cash with local agents and use the funds to invest in what they need – whether it’s on starting a business, education, making their home safer/sturdier, healthcare, or livestock.
 
GiveDirectly uses rigorous experimental research (randomized controlled trials) to measure the impact of their unconditional cash programs and answer public policy questions, generating evidence on key design and implementation questions across varied contexts. You can find over 300 studies on the positive impacts of cash transfers in GiveDirectly’s Cash Research Explorer.

We partner with music artists by using music royalties to donate to BIPOC charitable causes. https://www.n2aministries.com/n2a-microgiving

Ex-cofounder and Head of Engineering at Every.org. I work so others can receive the level of support I've personally benefited from.

What do we have if we don't have each other? Kindness, compassion, empathy and generosity is what I believe in. 

I believe all students ought to have access to music education! 

GiveDirectly is doing groundbreaking work researching the effectiveness of direct cash aid and universal basic income in alleviating poverty. As opposed to in-kind donations, I believe that the people who best know how to help the poor, are the poor themselves; as such they ought to receive the trust and dignity necessary to build their futures in spite of their structural lack of opportunity, and cash aid is the best way to do that.

To make the poor less poor, give them money. It's that simple. And there is a mountain of evidence to back it up.
