Founded by Noel Paul Stookey (of the 60\u2019s folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary) and his daughter, Liz, Music to Life<\/a> draws from a rich legacy of music for social change. What began as an exploration of the question \u201chow can music more strategically address injustice?\u201d<\/em> has become a movement of musicians across the country going beyond benefit concerts to create measurable impact in their communities. We provide business skills training, mentorship, and seed funding for innovative artists of all genres who are creating music-driven community programs that directly address the issues of our time.<\/p>\n

For example, the 10 artists in our Fall 2024 online Musician Changemaker Accelerator (MCA) Academy<\/a> have just completed 6 weeks of interactive sessions on social entrepreneurship and creative business planning. They\u2019re now beginning 4 months of coaching with resource development experts where they\u2019ll get 1-on-1 support to help build their programs and secure partners for their ideas – ideas like:<\/p>\n

Hip-hop performances that advocate against gun violence
\nSongwriting programs that connect children in low-income areas to green spaces\u00a0
\nCreative workshops that use musical storytelling to encourage action on energy access<\/p>\n

As a proud member of GIA for 3 years, we\u2019re excited to share the impact we\u2019ve witnessed through investing in artists as social entrepreneurs. Recently, we worked with Beny Esguerra, (award-winning producer and graduate of our Fall 2023 MCA Academy), helping him further develop his program including stronger evaluative methods and negotiating a contract with the City of Toronto to fund the 5th year of his community project. Wheel It Studios<\/em><\/a> provides mobile access to recording equipment and mentorship for low income young artists across high-density, gang-driven neighborhoods in Toronto, resulting in violence reduction, increased academic engagement and peaceful collaboration through music making.<\/p>\n
