Mission and programs · 2023

Primary exempt purpose

To provide educational curricula and programs to build inclusive community through innovative music and cultural arts.

  • Music Curricula: The organization assists in building a comprehensive K-8 Jewish music program, working directly with schools to tailor programs to meet the specific needs of students and teachers. The curriculum is designed to foster a love for Jewish music and culture, emphasizing the connection between heart and music. Students develop their unique voice and expression through music. In 2023, music curricula were licensed for 5 programs in the Bay Area in 4 different organizations reaching 10 educators and 500 students and parents.

    Expenses $17,791

  • Workshops: The organization offers a variety of educational and musical workshops for all age groups. These workshops are a firsthand experience of the use of music for community building, using Music by Heart's values, and are tailored for schools, congregations, summer camps, universities, and community organizations. These workshops provide an opportunity for participants to learn about the power of music in fostering connections and teamwork, and to gain insights into the philosophy. They are designed to be engaging, interactive, and fun for all participants. In 2023, the organization presented 20 workshops.

    Expenses $9,835

  • Consultations: We understand that every school is unique and has its own specific needs when it comes to music education. Our organization has worked with a variety of schools and we are well-versed in the challenges that schools may face. Some schools may already have established music programs that they wish to enhance, while others may be looking to build or completely re-envision a new music education program from scratch. We are dedicated to helping you with your specific needs by providing a range of services for you to choose from. Whether you need help with curriculum development, program assessment, teacher training, or any other aspect of your music program, we are here to help you achieve your goals.
