🎶💖🤩The incredibly generous team at Brand Music Co. has donated 11 beautiful ukuleles to the Musical Memories Foundation to support our "Strum for Fun" introductory Ukulele workshop. We are absolutely over the moon! 🌙

These instruments help us bring high quality, positive outcome based music education to our "experienced in life" community.

We'll be delivering our first workshop on Friday, June 26th to the La Comida community of Palo Alto. The City of Palo Alto made it possible for us to deliver this workshop, at no cost to community members.

Kala, you've given us so much more than ukuleles. Our community is seen, loved, 💜listened to, connected 🥰 with and celebrated ✨ through the gift of live music.

Thank you, Kala Brand Music Co., for believing in our mission and for the kindness behind this donation.

We are so proud and grateful to have your support!
