Brigitte & Bobby Sherman Children's Foundation

Brigitte & Bobby Sherman Children's Foundation Creating tomorrow's leaders through education & music. Our music lessons focus on indigenous and other world music.

Brigitte and Bobby Sherman Foundation is dedicated to providing motivated yet underserved children in Ghana with a quality education support system which launches a lifelong cycle of success. Children in Ghana face many challenges to education, especially in rural areas like Ada, where the BBSCF Musical Village is located. Only 84% of Ghanaian children attend primary school, and that number drops

to a staggering 46% of students who enroll in high school. Some barriers to education in Ghana include poverty which prevents parents from being able to pay school fees or purchase supplies such as uniforms; lack of transportation or the means to travel in inclement weather; and illness such as malaria. At BBSCF we believe education is a basic human right, and we want to help our students contribute to Ghana’s future development and success. We also believe that music and education go hand in hand and they are the keys to a productive and fulfilling life. Our goals are to prepare children in Ghana to continue their education after high school and to allow them to experience the magic of expressing themselves through music. BBSCF helps children in Ada and Accra to break the barriers to education by providing after school education, tutoring, and music lessons and programming in our Musical Village Youth Center. Our tutoring programs help students to focus on improvements in basic subjects, and we adjust the curriculum based on feedback from the students’ school teachers and parents. BBSCF also provides financial assistance to families who cannot afford to send their children to school. This assistance helps with school fees, uniforms, shoes, and other supplies. The foundation also helps children to board at their schools when it is necessary. While the Musical Village is not an orphanage, and does not house children on a full-time basis, we do offer overnight holiday camps throughout the year. In order to participate in Musical Village programming, students must go through an application process which includes a written application, two years of report cards, and a teacher recommendation. BBSCF’s children participate in a 21st century learning environment which helps to prepare for future careers. Since beginning in 2011, BBSCF has helped Ghanaian children access educational opportunities and improve their grades in preparation for high school, college, and beyond. We currently serve 29 children in the Musical Village and 4 students in the capital city of Accra, and we have a growing waiting list of children who are eager to enroll in our programming.

From one ex teen idol, to another - rest in peace Bobby Sherman.
This is from his wife, my friend, Brigitte
“It is with the heaviest heart that I share the passing of my beloved husband, Bobby Sherman.
Bobby left this world holding my hand—just as he held up our life with love, courage, and unwavering grace through all 29 beautiful years of marriage. I was his Cinderella, and he was my prince charming. Even in his final days, he stayed strong for me. That’s who Bobby was—brave, gentle, and full of light.
As he rested, I read him fan letters from all over the world—words of love and gratitude that lifted his spirits and reminded him of how deeply he was cherished. He soaked up every word with that familiar sparkle in his eye. And yes, he still found time to crack well-timed jokes—Bobby had a wonderful, wicked sense of humor. It never left him. He could light up a room with a look, a quip, or one of his classic, one-liners.
Known around the world for his music and acting, he brought joy to millions through songs like “Julie, Do Ya Love Me,” “Easy Come, Easy Go,” and “Little Woman,” and through his beloved role in Here Come the Brides.
But to those who truly knew him, Bobby was something much more. He was a man of service. He traded sold-out concerts and magazine covers for the back of an ambulance, becoming an EMT and a trainer with the LAPD. He saved lives. He showed us what real heroism looks like—quiet, selfless, and deeply human.
Bobby is survived by his two sons, Tyler and Christopher, and six beautiful grandchildren.
He lived with integrity, gave without hesitation, and loved with his whole heart. And though our family feels his loss profoundly, we also feel the warmth of his legacy—his voice, his laughter, his music, his mission.
Thank you to every fan who ever sang along, who ever wrote a letter, who ever sent love his way. He felt it.
Rest gently, my love.
With gratitude and love,�Brigitte Poublon Sherman.”

Happy May Day! While many countries celebrate the first of May as a transition from spring to summer, others, such as Ghana, also honor the hard work and dedication of workers, much like Labor Day in the US. Here’s to those who keep our community moving forward!
