The VH1 Save The Music Foundation works with school districts all over America. We interact with hundreds of music teachers and administrators and provide resources and tools for them to use for their school music programs. The VH1 Save The Music Foundation Advocacy Toolkit is a place where community members, teachers, and administrators can come to find the resources they need to keep music education strong in their community. We hope you find solutions. Please explore the links to the left.
