music is an amplifier

how does the design of an organization or artistic endeavor influence what it produces or creates?

<music:amplifier> is a hybrid entity: a not-for-profit organization and musical artist focused on educating, engaging, and empowering audiences on complex current, historical, and scientific issues through music. the entity is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. <music:amplifier> provides cultural and socioeconomic education to the public through recorded media and musical performance, supporting high-impact humanitarian, educational, and environmental initiatives by distributing 100% of its net revenue to other qualified 501(c)(3) charitable organizations. <music:amplifier> supports positive social, environmental, political, and economic outcomes through:

<> public education: <music:amplifier> creates and distributes original musical works designed to foster critical thinking, educate on complex socioeconomic challenges, and introduce listeners to cultural influences and educational resources. collaborators can support the organization and its philanthropic partners through gifting music and/or sampled sounds. this website educates readers on themes and topics addressed through each song, the cultural significance of any cleared sounds within the songs, and the social/environmental mission and impact of the charities to which proceeds of each song are donated.

<> charitable contributions: <music:amplifier> functions as a supporting organization, committing 100% of revenue generated from performances, streaming, and merchandise—after essential operating expenses—to high-impact charities. the artistic output created and distributed through <music:amplifier> directly funds critical social needs, such as childhood education, alleviation of hunger and poverty, and environmental stewardship. these philanthropic funds support specific charities associated with the topics and themes of the songs, or may support causes important to collaborators associated with sampled sounds. the act of listening to a song connects listeners with learning, impact through participation, and a community of stakeholders gifting their sounds and educating listeners about the many needs that are supported through <music:amplifier> charitable recipients.  

we hope that this unconventional hybrid entity can be a channel to educate, empower, connect, and advance good.

and to groove.

note: this is a beta site, and approval of 501c3 status is pending approval. please be nice.
