Meals 2 Music is a non-profit organization that serves children and young adults K-12 who do not have access to regular meals. We provide a safe environment, both after-school and during the summer, that combines meals and music…simple and fun!
Providing after-school meals in underserved neighborhoods throughout DC, Maryland, and Virginia
Building hope and joy through music education and musical experiences
Creating safe environments that offer emotional and intellectual support to children in need
For many children, the only meal they have each day is a school lunch. They often go to bed hungry, and then go to school hungry. They have trouble concentrating and can quickly fall behind academically. These children are prone to illness, anxiety and depression, and a life-long cycle of food-insecurity.
By providing a safe and nurturing environment, our goal is to offer children a fun way to develop musical skills that will serve them through life, while providing the nourishment they need to focus their energy toward daily academic learning.
