March for Music Therapy – In 14 communities across Canada!

March is National Music Therapy Awareness Month!

Across the country 14 communities will be marching to raise money and awareness for music therapy!

In Toronto, on Sunday March 30 at 1pm come join the funky Maracatu Mar Aberto Band on a 2km family- fun, fundraising March for Music Therapy from the Music Therapy Centre to the Lula Lounge to party with the 20 piece soul shakin’ Samba Elegua Band, do crafts, eat cupcakes, maybe win some awesome prizes and learn about music therapy!

Donations of $20 minimum in pledges to walk for adults (kids pledge whatever they can). Our goal is to have 200 people march each raising $50 = $10,000 for music therapy that will absolutely transform peoples lives.

I had the opportunity to see music therapy in action and was amazed to see the connection forged by music between a young girl with a brain injury, Sabrina, and her music therapist. I support the Canadian Music Therapy Trust Fund because I think all kids in need deserve a chance to be empowered like Sabrina.
