To date, CMA has donated more than $3.3 million to purchase instruments and fund music programs for Nashville's 75,000 school students. The philanthropic program, titled "Keep the Music Playing," was founded in 2005 as a way for the CMA Music Festival and its participating artists to give back to the community.
