Are you passionate about music, education, or helping the community? If so, you’ll love volunteering with Musicopia and our Gift of Music program !

Musicopia’s mission is to provide equitable access to music education and enrichment, encouraging self-confidence, global awareness, dedication and joy in Pre-K to 12th grade students and their communities. We are a recognized leader in rebuilding and revitalizing school music programs that help students in all stages of their musical education journey, starting with providing instruments.

Musicopia’s Gift of Music instrument donation program collects, repairs and places donated musical instruments with those students who need them the most. In this program, volunteers play a crucial role in helping us collect donated instruments from several partnering drop-off sites . We’re looking for reliable volunteers who are licensed drivers with access to a vehicle. The time commitment is flexible; volunteers can help out as much or as little as they choose.

Tasks could include:

  • Transporting donated instruments from drop-off locations to the storage unit and repair vendors
  • Assist with processing donated instruments and organizing instrument storage
  • Onsite assistance at instrument giveaway days
  • Hosting an instrument collection drive at a school, office, or community organization

To date, the Gift of Music program has placed over 7,000 donated instruments, which would not have been possible without the support of amazing volunteers! Become a Gift of Music volunteer to meet new people and to be a part of the transformative impact that playing a musical instrument has on young lives.
