Music as Magic: BTF Music4Kids Program
Think about the last time you tapped your toes to a favorite tune. Think about the last time you sang the lyrics to a great song, or heard music performed live. Music has played a role in your life in ways you readily identify, and in many ways you might not even realize.
Music (and the exposure to music) has been proven to help increase language development, a higher overall IQ, and the ability to process and synthesize information. These skills are crucial in a meaningful and holistic education. Shouldn’t every child have access to these skills as a part of their foundation?
Bridge to Turkiye Fund is proud to announce the Music4Kids program that creates and supports opportunities for music education in elementary schools in Turkey. Far too many rural schools have no music education whatsoever, and many school programs are limited in scope. We’d love to change that, with your help.
Bring music into the lives of students in Turkey via rhythm and percussion instrument sets from Bridge to Turkiye Fund’s Music4Kids program.
Help Bridge to Turkiye Fund ensure that music is not an afterthought, but part of the foundation of a meaningful, effective education for Turkish children.
The following video shows how a Music4Kids set helped transform music instruction in the classroom:
