EngAGE, Inc., is pleased to announce that it has been named a grant recipient of The NAMM Foundation. We were selected as one of 28 music-making organizations to receive a grant to fund vital programs that provide access to music-making opportunities across a variety of different communities and demographics.
“Through the transformative work of these organizations, thousands of people will discover or advance their love and desires for making music,” said Mary Luehrsen, Executive Director of The NAMM Foundation. “And these projects also advance new music learning experiences and capacity – all essential for creating more music makers.”
The grants serve to underscore the Foundation’s mission to advance participation in music making and offer quality access to all people. As one of 28 recipients, EngAGE will utilize the resource to support the organization’s music programs at communities in both Southern and Northern California
Tim Carpenter, EngAGE CEO/Founder said, “We look forward to offering exceptional music learning experiences to our community residents, thanks to the generosity of The NAMM Foundation.”
Since its inception in 1994, The NAMM Foundation’s annual grant program has donated more than $18 million in support to domestic and international music education programs, scientific research, advocacy and public service programs related to music-making. The grants are funded in part by donations from the National Association of Music Merchants and its 10,400 member companies worldwide.
