The NFN Mission Statement
Notes for Nourishment (NFN) projects, all founded by musicians and for musicians, have been happening for over 17 years now in multiple cities, countries, and continents. So many musicians have a heart of service and want to share their gifts...
-
...with a sense of purpose, but not all of us have training or experience in concert production, marketing, programming, or organizing outreach projects that help others through music. Through NFN, those of us who do have experience in these areas can share that expertise, mentor other artists, and make it possible for many more musicians to use their skills in the service of helping others. NFN concerts are where renowned musicians of all ages and cultures donate their time and talents to nourish their audience in free one-hour programs while donations are collected to benefit a cause chosen by the performer(s). This gives musicians the chance to share their gifts, not only feed their listeners, but to help causes they care about and to establish long-lasting connections with nonprofit organizations that nourish the hungry, hurting and homeless in their specific communities.
NFN Live
Our Notes for Nourishment concerts thus far have involved over 165 performers of all cultures, raising significant funds for more than 50 different nonprofits, organizations and causes worldwide. When the pandemic hit, we moved the concerts ONLINE with livestreamed events that enabled more artists to share their gifts and live broadcast from anywhere around the globe, raising donations online for the causes they care about.

We invite professional artists of all ages and music styles to create their own NFN concerts as part of our series, whether online or in live venues in their communities, choosing the causes and non-profits that will benefit from donations collected during their events.
