$1.6 Million Raised for Youth Music Education. What we witnessed on Saturday night was bigger than a fundraiser. It was a celebration of what is possible when a community comes together with heart, soul, and purpose. Because of you — everyone who showed up, danced, gave, and believed — thousands of students will walk into school next year with music in their lives. This is how we change the future. This is what it looks like when young people are given the tools to dream bigger. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Young Musicians Unite

Thursday night was nothing short of magical—a room filled with love, music, and the undeniable power of unity celebrating the transformative work of Playing For Change Foundation — setting the tone for what’s to come at the 2025 Impact Awards. 💫 The evening was truly unforgettable, with breathtaking performances by Yoli Mayor, Nina Marie from Playing for Change Foundation’s partner program at Young Musicians Unite, and Micaela Muziq, a student from the very first Joy Creators Camp. Each performance left guests in awe and reminded us why music holds the incredible power to inspire real change. We are endlessly grateful to our partners, Tiffany & Co., for their stunning showcase and unwavering support, and to our dedicated board and hosts who made this night one for the books. But most of all, thank you to every person who showed up to dream big with us. #PlayingForChange #ImpactAwards #MusicUnitesUs -- Jake Groshong - Stacey Glassman Mizener - World Red Eye - Karen Korponai - Carolyn Glick - Henry "Hank" M.
