🎶 Elevate Oakland’s 2025 Giving Season: Music Transforms Communities

In a time when our communities are feeling the weight of division and uncertainty, music and art remind us who we are — and what connects us. They are our most powerful tools for healing, resistance, and liberation.

For more than a decade, Elevate Oakland has brought these tools into classrooms and community spaces across our city — ensuring that young people, especially in under-resourced schools, have access to culturally rooted, artist-led music and arts education. From Deep East Oakland to the heart of downtown, our programs are nurturing the next generation of creative leaders and changemakers.

As we enter this season of giving, we invite you to join us in amplifying the power of creativity as a force for unity, self-expression, and freedom. Your support helps us sustain programs that reach over a thousand Oakland students each year — connecting them to mentors, music, and opportunities that build confidence and community.

Our goal is to raise $100,000 by January 1, 2026. Every contribution — whether $25 or $2,500 — helps ensure that Oakland’s young people have the tools to dream, create, and lead in a world that needs their voices more than ever.

Give today. Stand with us in the movement to Elevate Oakland through music, art, and liberation.
