Raise Girls To Rock With D'Addario X Guitar Center

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) For the third year in a row, 501c3 non-profit D'Addario Foundation and Guitar Center are working together to raise money on International Women's Day in support of more girls in music.

On, March 8, 2020, 50% of the proceeds from all D'Addario products sold at Guitar Center or guitarcenter.com will be donated to the D'Addario Foundation's Music Education for Girls Initiative.

In 2019, over $45,000 was donated to the D'Addario Foundation's Music Education for Girls Initiative, which provides young women with the resources and encouragement they need to study music, fostering both their personal and professional growth. This support not only serves to motivate girls to continue playing, but also to nurture them along in their educational journey.

The D'Addario Foundation's Music Education for Girls Initiative helps fund:
"The D'Addario Women in Guitar Scholarship is a life-changer because it shows a young female guitarist what's POSSIBLE," says Beth Marlis, Vice President of Musicians Institute. "The scholarship celebrates the dedication, talent, and a job well done, and blows the doors off anything or anybody that says 'no, you can't', and instead says 'keep on going' with your music!"

Help us raise more money this year at Guitar Center or by donating at https://ddar.io/donate on Sunday.
