APMF offers kids opportunities to participate in music education programs in the public, private, and charter schools, in after-school programs, and in summer recreation activities. They also fund scholarships via their educational partner, Lakehouse Music Academy, and at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Monmouth County. In the last several years, APMF has also put 200+ instruments in the hands of area children.
