Fuel Global Grantmaking
Your gift funds grants that break down barriers to music access
Your Gift Powers The NAMM Foundation's Global Grantmaking
Your donation goes directly to the NAMM Foundation's Global Grantmaking program. We award grants to charitable organizations that break down barriers to music learning for youth and adults, and that open pathways to careers in music. Every dollar helps these organizations reach more people.
"I remember the first time I saw La'Niyah perform with Miami Music Project. I felt butterflies...happy; it was a crying moment of joy. I never expected her to open up as much as she did. She kept coming back to rehearsals to perform with the groups, and when I saw the performance, that made me tear up."
- Shanice Brown, Mother of La'Niyah

Your Gift Supports Grants in Two Priority Areas
Music Learning
We fund high-quality, hands-on music learning that is, or will become, a sustained part of an organization's programming, with real instruments, real instruction and real practice. Your grant-making gift builds music learning that lasts and stays part of how organizations serve their communities for years to come.
Career Mobility
We fund career development in the music industry for youth and adults, across the full range of paths the field offers: performing musicians, teaching artists and careers in the commercial sectors that keep the industry running. Grants support real training, mentorship and opportunities that lead to sustainable livelihoods, not one-time exposure. Your gift helps people build lasting careers in music, whatever form that career takes..
