The funding will allow EMF to expand its mission of providing progressive, trauma-informed music education to young people facing housing instability. Through free classes, one-on-one mentorship, live performance opportunities, and therapeutic arts support, EMF uses music as a pathway to healing, confidence, and self-expression. Ninety percent of participating students receive a cost-free instrument to keep, empowering them to continue their musical journey long after the program concludes.
