If given the chance, would you give a child the gift of musical expression?
Project Blackbird is an idea born from a desire to share the gift of music with children who may not get the chance otherwise. By helping to fund this project, you can give a child the opportunity to express themselves musically; give them a chance to gain the confidence that comes from learning something new, and the joy of what it feels like to know they have created something unique. Musical expression can help a child know that they can make an impact on the world around them. Music allows us all to communicate in a way that words alone cannot. Help us help children gain wings to fly with music. Who knows? Maybe one of these children will be the next Jimmi Hendrix!
The goal of Bone Craft Guitars in establishing project blackbird is simple; place a guitar into the hands of a child for free.With your help and our vision, we can come together and make a child's dreams come true.
