Playing For Change Foundation - Empowering Girls Through Music.

Throughout history, women have been told that they have no power, no right to anopinion - no voice. Thankfully, we've seen firsthand that music education is a powerful tool for inspiring girls to fight for a better future.
That’s why, this year, we want to place the spotlight on our programs that are transforming their communities to support female empowerment. In Nepal, for instance, lives are being saved thanks to the Mother’s Society, which educates local women and girls about their rights, and the dangers of human trafficking. At Ecole de Musique de Kirina in Mali, female students are finally being allowed to learn to play their country’s traditional instruments, a privilege that was only given to male students until recently. At Joudour Sahara in Morocco (a country in which women were not even allowed to divorce their husbands until 2004) , we’ve achieved a 90% increase in female student attendance since the program began last year.
These are just a few examples of the important societal change that Playing For Change Foundation programs are initiating. We have so much more to do, but we cannot do it without your help.
Give the gift of music today and help us raise $75,000 to continue providing opportunities that girls around the world could previously only dream of.
