NAMM Foundation
The NAMM Foundation is the philanthropic arm of the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) trade association that supports programs, research and activities that promote music-making across the lifespan through its signature programs including Music Research, the Best Communities for Music Education, the SupportMusic Coalition, Talking Up Music Education Podcast, Music Education at the Border, and The NAMM Show programs GenNext, Music Education Days, the Nonprofit Management Institute, and Community Music Making.
We envision a world in which the joy of making music is a precious element of daily living for everyone; a world in which every child has a deep desire to learn music and a recognized right to be taught, and in which every adult is a passionate champion and defender of that right.
