Stuff About Me:
I started the Silverlake Conservatory of Music along with a couple of my friends about 10 years ago (2001). Music has been my life for as long as I can remember. When I was in high school, I was in the orchestra, marching band and musical production band. Anything to keep myself involved.
A few years back, I had the opportunity to visit my old high school and noticed how many of the music programs were cut from when I was there. There were barely any instruments left and the music room was essentially bare.
I quickly realized that there was something I could do to help out and that's when I started the Silverlake Conservatory of Music (www.silverlakeconservatory.org). The mission of the organization is to facilitate basic music education for the youth of the community but all are welcome and encouraged to participate.
We've been working to help gain music scholarships for low income children (ages 7-17) in the area. Currently we have about 250 low-income children on scholarship and a total of 700 students at the school. I've created a project on Crowdrise below to help fund this important cause. Please check it out and support us in any way you can.
