UKULELE
Our music programs are open to all Simcoe County children/youth. They are free for those in need and have a low fee for those with financial means.
Glowing Hearts Charity recognizes the value, benefit, and impact of music education and music opportunities and believes that all children/youth, regardless of the financial situation of their household, should be able to experience the benefits and rewards of being included in these types of programs. Children who participate in music lessons show growth in many aspects of their lives.
​
The goal of our music offerings is for growth and development, but also to use music as a vessel to build community, connection, self-esteem, mental health and wellness in a barrier-free environment.​​
