Music Will
Music Will, formerly Little Kids Rock, transforms lives by transforming music education in US public schools. Our network of thousands of K-12 teachers across 50 states lead a national movement that brings innovative and inclusive music education to students. Using genres including rock, pop, Latin, and rap, their program empowers teachers to build music programs as diverse as the kids they serve. As a result, students see themselves reflected in their classes, which strengthens their connection to their school, their peers, and their community. Music Will also donates necessary instruments and curriculum, meeting a key need of many school music programs. The world of music expands through innovation. Little Kids Rock ensures that music education does as well. Since 2002, the organization has reached more than 1,200,000 students with highly inclusive and culturally responsive music education. Today, more than 500,000 kids currently participate in Music Will programs. Learn more here: www.musicwill.org
