Mission and programs · 2022
Mission
G4V pursues its mission through free guitar instruction and a new acoustic guitar in a structured program run by volunteers, primarily through the Veterans Administration VA facilities and centers. Veterans are typically referred to the G4V program by their mental health provider. The healing power of music helps veterans deal with PTSD issues.
Activities or mission (Part I)
Guitars For Vets, Inc. is dedicated to sharing the healing power of music with veterans suffering from significant post-combat mental and emotional distress, particularly post traumatic stress disorder PTSD
-
Weekly private lessons are individualized and based on cirriculum designed to help students learn at their own pace and accomodate any physical or emotional challenges. Upon completion of the curriculum each student is presented with a guitar, gig bag, strap, tuner, strings, picks, method book, and certification of completion. Monthly group lessons, open to past and current students, provide an on-going forum for veterans to continue their music education. Many graduates become active in our organization as volunteers. In 2022 the organization graduated 963 students, which includes over 3,000 lessons. There were 600 active volunteers and 117 active chapters.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
