One parent says, “My son has been involved in Plugged In for the last 5 years. Having done volunteer work my whole life, Plugged In is one of the most amazing organizations of which I ever been a part. This program transforms kids’ lives by giving them self-confidence, increased musicianship, and being responsible for making the world a better place. The goal is to teach ethics, empathy, and compassion locally and globally. The changes in these children are remarkable! They create a positive change in themselves and the world around them through their music. Music is the common language that binds these kids together. Plugged In is a family where the children truly care for and respect one another regardless of age, race, sex, income, or personal handicaps. Music transcends all boundaries.”
