We aid students of music by helping to raise scholarship money for study at all levels, from our music camps to other partner non-profit music organizations, for private lessons and college attendance.

Chudwuke Christian Okeke was a self-taught cellist living in Lagos, Nigeria. When he came to our attention as a highly gifted and motivated musician, we helped him apply to the University of Missouri St. Louis school of music, to which he was accepted, and where he began his studies as an undergraduate in January of 2022. He was awarded a place on the Dean’s List for his academic achievement, and has received two modest scholarships since beginning his studies: one for his academic success, and one that is a Diversity and Inclusion scholarship. We are continuing to raise the funds necessary to help him continue and complete his degree there. In addition to a full load of classes at UMSL, he holds down two work-study jobs. If you’re interested in donating to our scholarship fund, please contact us; donations are tax-deductible. We’d love to have you on our team!
