Save Our Artists
This pay it forward program has enjoyed incredible success as artists mentor members of the community through this global pandemic. We received major news coverage almost weekly during 2020 as everyone in our program got up and took action. See PRESS section below.
We believe that we are powerful together. Musicians and Artists alike are in a unique position to mentor others and provide a source of encouragement and strength.
Check out our Director as well as our Artists & Board Members profiles for more information about the people who make this initiative possible.
the Small BUSINESS Initiative
Save Our Businesses & Feed Our Families
This pay it forward program gives successful business consultants an opportunity to donate their time and resources to support members of our community who need to create and fortify their streams of revenue both online and offline, in order to feed their families. See PRESS section below.
We believe that we are powerful when we help one another, even when our tendency may be to make ourselves small and hide, which can be the tendency for all during a global crisis. This initiative, coupled with our education & coaching program, empowers our community to strengthen one another preventing a sense of otherwise helplessness.
