Music education and mental wellness programming for children and underserved communities.
Support for performance artists, including sober spaces, guided hikes, recovery meetups, yoga and meditation.
Mentorship for Women in the music industry.
Support for veterans and their families with a focus on how songwriting helps heal through music.
This year, More Than Music℠ Foundation will raise funds to support wellness education and support programs at Park City Song Summit. In the future, we aim to expand our scope to additional outlets that align with our mission.
