Hear Your Song Hear Your Song empowers children with serious illnesses and complex health needs to make their voice

Hear Your Song is a 501(c)(3) organization empowering children and teens with serious illnesses and complex health needs to make their voices heard through collaborative songwriting. Hear Your Song's volunteers work one-on-one with kids, in-person or remotely, to help them write their own lyrics on whatever topic they choose! Based on the lyricist's musical choices for style, instrumentation, and more, Hear Your Song composers and musicians will then set the lyrics to music and bring the song to life through a professional recording. In addition to Hear Your Song's central organization, there are Hear Your Song campus-based chapters at Yale University, Smith College, Dartmouth College, Wellesley College, and CUNY Hunter College. Throughout its chapters, Hear Your Song currently maintains partnerships with Yale-New Haven Children's Hospital, Camp Oasis (Crohn's and Colitis Foundation), Double H Ranch Camp, Camp AmeriKids (The ELM Project), the Hang Tough Foundation, and more! Check us out at www.hearyoursong.org and https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcn-79DuKg3Rx0RD6gcfkvA. If you are interested in collaborating with Hear Your Song as a institutional partner, new campus chapter, or general volunteer OR if you know a child who would like to collaborate on creating a song, please reach out to us at [email protected].
