As you may know, Music to Life’s history spans a few decades. Prior to 2018, co-founders Liz Stookey Sunde and Noel Paul Stookey worked with a diverse network of artists and volunteers from the entertainment, business and nonprofit communities, producing songwriting contests, workshops, and themed productions, on the path to building what Music to Life is today: a dynamic hub of musical activism where socially conscious artists are connected with the resources, training and mentorship they need to realize their own bold visions for community change. Music to Life now connects with 100+ musicians a year - across genres, generations and geographies - supporting their work to serve more than 300 communities-in-need.
