Back-to-school is in full swing and I'm sure you are enjoying all the stories your kids are bringing home with them about new classes, teachers, and friendships. Does your child's school offer music education? I remember learning about rhythm and music in kindergarten! But unfortunately, not all schools are still offering this program.
Enter Energizer and the VH1 Save The Music Foundation, who are working together to make sure that schools around the country get the musical instruments that they need! Energizer made a $250,000 donation to the VH1 Save The Music Foundation, which will help restore instrumental music education in public schools.
This program was kicked off with a special surprise concert by Grammy®-nominated platinum-recording artist and VH1 Save The Music Foundation Ambassador, Jordin Sparks! On July 28, she took the stage in New York City and gave fans, tourists, and passersby a performance of her latest hits. This special performance kicked off a series of grants from Energizer and the VH1 Save The Music Foundation to address the need of musical instruments in schools.
I am a huge believer that music should be part of a child's education. Way to go, Energizer and VH1, for giving the gift of music to schools across the country! Keep your eyes open when you are purchasing Energizer products, because right now, specially marked Energizer packages. Each package contains a code - when you have three codes, you can redeem them for a $10 iTunes gift card here: www.nowthatspositivenergy.com/music!
Want to get involved? Visit Energizer's now that's positivenergy page or their Facebook page to find out more about helping to restore instrumental music education in America’s public schools!
