DURING THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2022, MHOF DONATED A TOTAL OF 1,197 NEW INSTRUMENTS AND 560 NEW ACCESSORIES, SUCH AS MOUTHPIECES, METHOD BOOKS, AND MUSIC STANDS, TO 49 SCHOOLS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. OVER THE LIFE OF THE INSTRUMENTS, AN ESTIMATED 11,970 PLUS STUDENTS WILL BE IMPACTED. THE DONATIONS ALLOW STUDENTS IN THOSE SCHOOLS WHO CAN'T AFFORD TO RENT OR BUY AN INSTRUMENT, AND/OR THAT ARE ON WAITING LISTS, AN OPPORTUNITY TO JOIN THE MUSIC PROGRAM AND PLAY QUALITY INSTRUMENTS. THIS IMPROVES THEIR EXPERIENCE, INSPIRES CONFIDENCE AND INCREASES SKILLS AND OVERALL ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENT. MHOF HOSTED TWO INSTRUMENT REPAIR WORKSHOPS SERVING 132 MUSIC EDUCATORS IN HOUSTON AND SAN FRANCISCO AS PART OF OUR MUSIC EDUCATION DISTRICT SUPPORT SERVICES (MEDSS). MHOF PROVIDED ONGOING SUPPORT TO OUR PARTNER DISTRICTS RESULTING IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF NEW MUSIC PROGRAMS AND EQUITABLE ACCESS TO QUALITY MUSIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS FOR THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS. MEDSS HAS PROVEN TO PLAY A PIVOTAL ROLE IN WORKING COLLABORATIVELY AND SUCCESSFULLY WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS THAT ARE COMMITTED TO THE PROCESS THAT WILL HELP DELIVER STRONG, ACCOUNTABLE, AND SUSTAINABLE MUSIC EDUCATION IN THEIR SCHOOLS. AFTER SEEING THE IMPACT THAT MEDSS WAS MAKING IN INDIVIDUAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS, THE COUNTRY MUSIC ASSOCIATION FOUNDATION FUNDED A STATEWIDE EFFORT TO PERFORM MEDSS IN EVERY SCHOOL DISTRICT IN THE STATE OF TENNESSEE. WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE TN DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION, MHOF IS CURRENTLY ASSESSING ALL ARTS DISCIPLINES IN ALL PARTICIPATING DISTRICTS, PRESENTING FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS LEADING TO EQUITY AND ACCESS FOR ALL STUDENTS ATTENDING PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE STATE.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$755.5KMusic Rising Program
IN JANUARY 2014, MHOF ASSUMED THE OPERATIONS OF THE MUSIC RISING PROGRAM FROM THE GIBSON FOUNDATION, THE PROGRAM'S PRIMARY STAKEHOLDER. MUSIC RISING IS A NATIONAL PROGRAM THAT REBUILDS MUSIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS IN THE AFTERMATH OF A NATURAL OR FINANCIAL DISASTER. IN EXCHANGE FOR MHOF AGREEING TO CARRY OUT THE RESPONSIBILITIES AND OPERATIONS OF THE PROGRAM, THE REMAINING FUNDS IN THE PROGRAM WERE TRANSFERRED FROM THE GIBSON FOUNDATION TO MHOF AND CLASSIFIED AS TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED. FOR CLARITY OF REPORTING, THESE PROGRAM FUNDS WERE DEPOSITED INTO A SEPARATE BANK ACCOUNT FROM WHICH ALL FINANCIAL ACTIVITY WILL BE PROCESSED. MHOF RECORDED THIS INITIAL AMOUNT AS A TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED CONTRIBUTION IN THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$8.9K
