We would like to thank everyone who attended the Music Drives Us 10th Birthday Bash on August 13, 2016! We were surrounded by hundreds of our closest friends, most generous supporters, and past grantees to celebrate this exciting milestone.

The birthday party reminded us how far we have come since our inception. During that first year in 2006, we received 12 grant applications. Press fast-forward to 2016, and we had 181 grant applications submitted to our grant cycle! During these 10 short years, we have had the opportunity to donate $1.2M to programs that support and assist veterans, students, those overcoming illness, at-risk youth, and countless other individuals and organizations interested in using music as a tool to effect positive change for people of ages. This speaks volumes of how far music has come to be so much more than just entertainment or a hobby in our communities.
     
We owe our volunteers and sponsors a special thank you for going above and beyond to make this special night extraordinary. We couldn’t be more appreciative of their valuable time and dedicated efforts that made this event one that we won’t soon forget. With the first 10 years behind us, we look forward to seeing what the next 10 years will bring!
