September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month.

F2F Music Foundation supports su***de prevention and believes in the power of music to promote emotional well-being, connection, hope, and positive expression — especially among young people. Su***de remains one of the leading causes of death among youth and young adults in the United States, making awareness, support, and prevention critically important.

We are proud to support the Su***de Prevention Month Prayer Vigil with Transformation Church Fort Bend and the City of Missouri City as our community comes together in prayer, remembrance, support, and hope.

So happy to see this for AUVD! We know it’s been a long road to this success!

🎵 WE RECEIVED A COMMUNITY MUSIC GRANT! 🎉
We are delighted to announce that Art and Unity for Vulnerable Development (AUVD) has received a Community Music Grant from The D'Addario Foundation! 🎶❤️

This grant will support our Music Education Program in Kakuma Refugee Camp, Kenya, helping us create more opportunities for young people to learn, practice, and express themselves through music.

For us, this is more than a grant. It is an investment in the talent, creativity, confidence, and dreams of young people in our community. 🌍🎵

We are deeply grateful to the D’Addario Foundation for believing in our work and supporting our commitment to making music education more accessible in Kakuma.

🙏 Thank you, D’Addario Foundation, for standing with AUVD and our community!

From our founder/CEO Vel Lewis:

I was truly honored to accept an invitation from Shalom World⁠ to present the Glorious Mysteries of The Rosary during their “America Prays” initiative — 30 days of prayer for peace in the world leading up to the 250th anniversary of the United States.

Between June 4 and July 4, people across the country are coming together in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament — praying for peace, healing, families, young people, wisdom for leaders, protection of life, and spiritual renewal throughout our nation.

Every day from now until July 4th, I will lead a prayer session. Others will also lead prayer on a 24-hour rotation. Please join us from the comfort of your home, car, office, etc. by visiting the following website:

Here is Isiah Reed of Gene Tomas High School holding the viola F2F Music Foundation delivered for him a few weeks ago. We give a huge “thank you” to his Orchestra Director, Mrs. Kathy Riley for her recommendation and her support to further the mission of our organization.

I am pleased to say that F2F Music Foundation was able to provide an instrument to a student in need. Mrs. Kathy Riley, an orchestra director with Lamar CISD (shown in these pictures), contacted me and asked if we could help a student in need of a viola. Turns out that a viola which was donated to F2F a few months before was the exact size needed! Thanks be to God!

Your donations are needed to continue our mission of helping our youth reach their highest potential using the power of music to enhance their confidence and academic skills. Please give what you can today!
