Music is Medicine

Music is Medicine (www.musicismed.org) is a new 501(c)3 nonprofit that helps artists produce inspiring music experiences for pediatric patients. Specifically, the organization pairs artists with seriously ill children so the artists can create original songs for the patients that not only uplift them but also raise money and awareness for the fight against their diseases. The greater goal of the organization is to transform music into a vehicle for social change by empowering artists across the United States, from celebrities to college kids, to participate in music-related service projects that benefit seriously ill children.
