About Little Kids Rock
Little Kids Rock is a national nonprofit that transforms lives by restoring, expanding, and innovating music education in public schools. The organization partners with school districts to train public school teachers to run its innovative Modern Band curriculum and donates all of the accompanying instruments and resources necessary to teach popular music in a way that empowers students to experience instant achievement. Little Kids Rock started as a schoolteacher’s vision to give his students access to music education while diminishing budgets for the arts made that more and more difficult to do. What began as a single after-school guitar class has since exploded into a national movement that is bringing free, weekly music lessons to more than 240,000 public school children due to the efforts of more than 1,800 teachers in 30 cities nationwide. To date, Little Kids Rock has served over 450,000 students.
