With community support, every student can have the opportunity to learn and grow through music, regardless of their family's financial situation.
Born Creative was founded in 2020 with a simple yet powerful vision: to make music education accessible to every student, regardless of their family's financial situation. Our founders, a group of music educators and community leaders, witnessed firsthand how financial barriers were preventing talented students from pursuing their musical dreams.
We started with a small pilot program in our local community, helping just a handful of families get the instruments their children needed. The impact was immediate and profound – not only did these students thrive musically, but their families felt supported and their schools could expand their music programs.
Today, Born Creative has grown into a comprehensive program that serves hundreds of families and schools across the region. We've developed two distinct pathways – our Direct Funding Program (Pre-imbursement) for those who need upfront assistance, and our Reimbursement Program for those who have already made the investment in music education.
Our mission extends beyond just providing instruments. We're building a community where music education is valued, supported, and accessible to all. Every instrument we help provide represents not just a tool for learning, but a gateway to creativity, confidence, and lifelong joy.
Everything we do is guided by our core mission and values, ensuring we stay true to our commitment to music education accessibility.
To make music education accessible to every student by removing financial barriers and providing support for families and schools to invest in musical instruments and education.
We approach every family's situation with empathy and understanding, recognizing that financial challenges shouldn't limit someone's potential for musical growth and expression.
We believe in the power of community support and work to build partnerships with schools, music stores, and families to create a network of musical opportunity.
We maintain the highest standards in our programs, ensuring that every person receives quality support and every instrument meets educational standards.
We work tirelessly to remove barriers and create multiple pathways for families to access music education, regardless of their financial situation.
We measure our success not just in instruments provided, but in the positive impact on students, families, schools, and the broader music education community.
