🎸 Grow with a Pro 🎸

"It Takes a Village"- What do you mean?

There is a saying "it takes a village to raise a child"- to me, that means:

• Everyone in the community has an influence on the growth of a child
• That ranges from security, values, education, and providing opportunity for youth to experience more than we had. 
• To remove limitations and change our mindsets from scarcity to abundance especially in our youth.  

Let us imagine a time when we were young children and we had that deep fire and ambition in our gut to be chosen for the basketball team, the cheerleading squad, get the opportunity to buy that book at the scholastic book fair, or to be recognized for our talents in school. 

• Can you recall a time where you did not get to be a part of any of those moments due to the economic inability to do so? Because our families could not afford it no matter how much they wanted to?
• Did you feel the heaviness of their heart when they could not provide something their child really wanted?...

I am sure we all know that feeling well. Even now, we sometimes wish that economic barriers were not a burden to experience the beauty and opportunities that life provides. As we know, we as adults must figure out the way to make those wishes come to life and it takes action. But, our kids cannot do that because they are learning and growing.

How "Grow with a Pro" works: 

• Students get paired with award winning, highly qualified, industry classical guitarist who provide private, 1-1 lessons.
• Internal Creations funds the hourly rate of the lessons and students and families will be able to have access to these lessons at no-cost to them!
• Students study privately weekly under these guitarists and receive proper technical, musical and mentorship in preparation for recitals along with high school and college auditions if they choose to have a major/minor in music. 
• Student progress will be tracked via performance and written assessments and be shared with donors quarterly (every 3 months)

In this 🎸 musical scenario, private lessons with highly qualified guitarists in the industry can be costly and out of reach for us, but we do not have to limit ourselves to this narrative. We can help our kids grow with a pro.

When you make a tax-deductible gift to Internal Creations you are sponsoring our children to have these opportunities. Many of our kids in the guitar programs across NYS have shown incredible dedication to the guitar and wanting to pursue music education through high school and college. You will see exactly who you are sponsoring and be a part of the village that will help them grow into amazing human beings beyond music. 

Let us be the reason kids have opportunities to thrive and grow into young professionals by getting them in the environments for success and achievement together!
