Music & Children are Our Future!


Blog post by Tina Winterlik © 2011

Next week Angel is about to begin her tamborine/drum lessons and we are so excited that Nick Apivor http://nickapivor.blogspot.com is her instructor!!
Nick Apivor




He's Super Talented. My dreams are coming true. I always wanted to homeschool Angel and just have tutors that I know and trusted teach her. She's been doing dance(ballet & hip hop) and badminton and this is going to round things out so nicely. We want to go to Africa too!! and I really want to go to India, Angel really wants to go to China. We dream about seeing the world, and hearing music from around the world and seeing all the little children is so inspiring. Check out what Playing for Change is doing! They are AWESOME!!!



You know what else is super cool, is they did all this in four years. Sound familar, just like the goals and dreams of Four Years. Go http://www.fouryearsgo.org/

Creating Positive Change

It has been four years since the Playing For Change Foundation was created. PFCF broke ground on its first school in Gugulethu, South Africa in the Spring of 2008. Today the foundation is operating seven programs in five countries!

All of this is made possible through your generous contributions. Thank you for your support. Click here to make a donation.
