Hungry For Music is a grassroots volunteer-driven 501 (c)(3) charity organization with a nationwide and international outreach. Hungry for Music's mission is to inspire underprivileged children (and others) by bringing positive musical and creative experiences into their lives. Since becoming a non-profit in 1994, Hungry for Music has brought the healing quality of music to thousands of people through its musical instrument donations, concerts, and workshops. We support our programs through memberships, benefit concerts and events, raffles, and the sale of Hungry for Music produced compact discs.

"Hungry for Music's purpose is to embrace the positive qualities of music: its ability to create community, to express a talent, to unify various races, and most importantly to heal."
Jeff Campbell, Executive Director

Listen to the Hungry for Music theme song! "Music Knows No Boundaries" by Ladysmith Black Mambazo. The song captures the spirit of Hungry for Music's mission.
