Playing for Change Foundation

Playing for Change Foundation is a music program that was organized in 2010 by Star School Music. Its thrust is to help provide drum and dance training to the LEAF Intore Cultural Troupe. In 2012, the Program expanded by providing students with a series of workshops led by members of the LEAF Intore Troupe.

The Playing For Change Foundation purchased instruments for the school. It funded teacher stipends for and dance workshops held over the course of the year. These workshops introduced the power of music to a new group of young people while offering them a connection to their country's rich cultural traditions. In addition, the workshops provided valuable teaching experience to the Intore Troupe members who led the sessions.
