MAKING MUSIC CHANGES LIVES
Our commitment to social equity through teaching popular music (rock, blues,
urban, world) and making it accessible to a greater number of youth in our
community, has been part of the Blue Bear culture for almost 50 years. We also
offer significant savings and scholarships to assist students from families with
financial need.
Your donation to Blue Bear School of Music is an investment in a vibrant,
established and legacy non-profit organization that improves lives.
OUR IMPACT
In just the last year, we have proudly served over 500 children and young adults
through our Outreach Programs. We’ve seen our students gain confidence, find
joy, and create greater community through their classes. We were thrilled to
get this message recently from our wonderful Little Bears teacher Michael
Chulada: “I thought you’d like to know, last Wednesday Hamilton Families
Charity had a volunteer and partner appreciation event and they chose our
program to acknowledge! They called me up and gave me a plaque and a tote bag
decorated by the kids! It was a very touching experience! They are very
grateful for the program, so we are doing some real good work there!” Thank
you, Michael, and thank you Hamilton Familes!
