What is Resilience to You?
Project 440 launched our annual fiscal year-end campaign and we are honored to announce the support of an anonymous donor and the Project 440 Board of Directors! The group pledged to match up to $10,000 of donations received during the month of August. This means that your donation makes DOUBLE the impact in supporting Project 440’s mission to help young people use their interest in music to forge new pathways for themselves and ignite change in their communities.
2020 has been a year full of challenges. Despite those challenges, Project 440 has been dedicated to providing young musicians with the skills and tools they need to succeed. The pandemic, coupled with recent social unrest, has motivated Project 440 more than ever to fulfill our mission while exploring new ways to engage young musicians in this time of need. Project 440 has been resilient, our students have been resilient. Together, through resilience, we are able not only to survive, but thrive in the world today.
We were interested to hear from our students on their thoughts about resilience. So we asked them, “What is Resilience to You?” You can watch and listen to their responses in the video below.
Throughout the month of August, we will continue to highlight the resilience of the Project 440 Family: the students, staff, board, and our community at large. We need your support to continue offering our essential programming to the people who need it the most, the youth. You can donate now and double your impact by clicking here.
