Hi. I'm Andrew and I'm a high school junior in Marin County. I've played guitar for twelve years, beginning with a baritone ukulele in kindergarten and now playing electric guitar in my high-school rock band. Playing guitar is one of my passions and I also enjoy working with younger kids. Last Fall, I decided to share my passion for guitar with kids here in Marin and I've been teaching guitar lessons to a small group of underserved, school-aged children in Marin City since then.

One of the obstacles I initially recognized was the need for guitars that the kids could call their own, so I raised money to purchase guitars for my small group of students. My vision now is to serve a greater number of kids and expand beyond guitar, providing lessons for drums, bass, keyboards, etc. Based on my high-school rock band experience, I know that Marin has many talented high school musicians who would love to teach music to younger kids, and I even have a few musicians lined up already. But, before we can move forward, we need to raise the funds necessary to purchase the additional instruments.

Seeing the need for additional funding from the broader community, I founded Chords for Change as a non-profit so that we could seek donations to fund the purchase of musical instruments. Our ultimate goal is to have a pipeline of high school musicians teaching music lessons and providing instruments to underserved, school-aged kids throughout Marin. To make this goal a reality, we need your financial support. Please consider donating. Thank you!
