All of the donated gear is moving to it's new home today. We are very proud of the work we have done over the last 8 years, and are excited for a new era of GuitarZ For KidZ!
Thank you to everyone of you who have in some way touched GFK!

Well, it’s been a good run, but it is time to pass the torch. Effective May 23, 2026, GuitarZ For KidZ here in Central Alberta will be guided by Messrs. Greg Boulay and Dan Barton. We will let them do their own introductions to you all.

On behalf of our Board of Directors, David and myself, we thank all of you who so quickly got behind our GuitarZ For KidZ project back in 2018. Your enthusiasm, your kind donations of instruments, your cash donations, your purchase of raffle tickets, and mostly your overwhelming moral support was just incredible. We do hope that your support of GuitarZ For KidZ will continue under new leadership.

If you are someone that our program has helped, we are eternally grateful that we were able to make a difference in your life. You have made a difference in ours.

Thank you all!

Well friends, supporters and fans, as all good things must, our time here at GuitarZ For KidZ in Red Deer must come to an end. We have been hard at it for eight years and it seems the need is waning, which is a good thing. If there is someone out there who is interested in keeping it going, with better ideas (maybe younger ideas?) to jump start it further please touch base with us. Failing such, by the end of 2026 we will be dissolving our wonderful enterprise. Kindest regards to all. David & Don

To start the New Year in style we’ve cleaned up & re-strung this beautiful little Johnson starter bouzouki. Here’s David Gilmore of Gilmore Guitars, one of our great sponsors, knocking’ out some chords. So, if you know someone …, well you know what we do!

We have an ask that needs to be fulfilled gang. We need a violin or fiddle (perspective) for a young man in need. Anyone got a line on a dusty old Stradivarius kicking around under a bed? It doesn,t have to be a Strad, but it's the only brand I know!

Any of our friends know if there is anyone in Blackfalds teaching guitar for some kids?

We were so pleased to present this wonderful Martin guitar to our good friend & loyal supporter of GuitarZ For KidZ, Kevin Enright. Kevin was the high bidder in our silent auction. He tells us he's going to "break it in" before gifting it to his son!

A huge thank you to everyone that came to visit us & inquire after what we do. Thanx to those who dropped donations. And a huge thank you to Jesse & the Red Deer Folk Festival! See y'all next year! 🎶❤️🎶❤️🎶

To all of the teachers & teacher's aids on our pages, school is getting close. We know that you know someone, a student, or maybe not a student, who would love the gift of music, but cannot afford it. The picture is just one of the electric guitar and amp combos we have given away. We also have acoustic guitars, whether folks, country or even classical. We have ukulele's, maybe even a mandolin and certainly a bass guitar or two for some lucky soul. Touch us here or through our web site, guitarzforkidz.ca

Do we have anyone needing a good condition piano?
