Project Description

Founded in 2015, Music Mission San Francisco (MMSF) provides after-school music education free of charge to under-privileged children in San Francisco’s Mission District.  Our goal is to inspire children to create positive social change throughout their lives.  We strive for student improvement in school learning/attendance and a vision of higher academic aspirations, social skills, a sense of community, behavior, musical literacy, problem-solving skills, an appreciation for music, and cognitive skills such as memory, manual dexterity, sustained focus and pattern recognition.  Our philosophy is based on Venezuela’s EI Sistema, a visionary global movement that transforms the lives of children through music.
