Chase the Music
See our GiftsOverview
Hope, Strength, Love and Joy, for children battling critical conditions.
Original music for those who need it most.
Mission
Chase the Music gives children battling critical conditions hope, strength, love, and joy through the power of music. We do this with original music - composed and performed just for them. The shared experience of a Chase the Music premiere is inspirational and moving for all who participate and share in the event. The music is released and its impact grows as it is shared and enjoyed.
History
Officially organized and recognized as a US based non-profit in 2015, but delivering programs for several years before that.
Program
We deliver original musical programs (instrumental, vocal, dance, and theater) to children in need. These programs are specific to the child for maximum impact.
Impact
"I'm never going to stop smiling", said Lauren, 5, who at the time was battling cancer and undergoing chemo. We want to replicate that same feeling, for children who are battling a critical condition.
Greater than that, we know that the impact extends well past the child, faily, composer, performers and audience. Listeners and supporters feel the Hope, Strength, Love and Joy that is expressed through a Chase the Music gift.
Goals this year
To grow the organization and to deliver 100% more pieces this year than last. To put ourselves on a path towards our "Vision 2020" where we are working across the globe. To enable physical facilities, delivering music to these beautiful children.
