I wanted to start a thread about positive things that we can do as musicians to 'give back' or 'pay it forward' in the coming year.
I am not looking for glorification just to share what I do/plan to do/or have done to inspire others to do the same.
Starting in January I am volunteering with the horn section in the local middle school band. I want to inspire the next generation to be musicians. I teach and have taught VERY cheap lessons for guitarists (younger generation) that are hungry to learn and work hard. Usually $10/hour which I use for picks/strings, etc. Also I set a goal for next year to volunteer in a military tribute horn section to play in support of our veterans and active duty military, as I was unable to serve and want to do something positive for them. I also will be tech'ing and /or running sound for the new Church I go to, which I have not done in a while because I parted ways with a previous one.
What are you going to do?
It doesn't matter if your donating things of value or your time. It makes a difference.
Or even what ideas do you have that others can do to make a difference through music for others? Whether it be underprivileged children, or putting a smile on the face of the elderly.
Thoughts?
