Music is the vehicle. Transformation is the destination.

Rawkstars provides free music lessons and instruments to kids, but honestly, music isn’t the point. We aren’t looking to create the next Foo Fighters, Jimi Hendrix or Alicia Keys.

What we do and the impact we’re proud of, is to help kids grow, find their confidence, and step into their existing greatness. It’s about developing skills and a mindset that benefits them and everyone they come in contact with for the rest of their lives.

The kids and families we serve don’t have the means to access music on their own, but we passionately believe they deserve it. We’re grateful for our generous Fan Club, our students’ families, and our local music shop partners, all of whom together make a bigger impact than Rawkstars could alone.

Rawkstars really was such an amazing experience for me. I’ve always had a love and passion for music and your program gave me the opportunity to be able to explore and learn.
