I became interested in EMTAH after a close friend told me about the work she was doing with the program. I began going to events as often as I could and was instantly hooked. Being able to watch the mentor/student interaction first hand is truly amazing. EMTAH strives to improve children's ability to learn through arts and music. If there were more programs like this available for at risk kids to be involved with, I feel there would be more progress in their educational journey.

This program has had a dramatic impact on my 17 year old son. Bill and his musicians have served as great role models and mentors that have brought a great and positive focus to my son. As a result, his total focus in life has changed for the good. Bill is an extremely passionate mentor--and that passion is what has stirred my own son to want to do better in life in general--and he has once again discovered his own passion for music which is carrying on to all facets of his life. I strongly recommend EMTAH as a powerful force of good to make a very positive difference in the community that is serves.

I started volunteering with EMTAH in the summer of 2009. After reading Venturing Together, William Rossi's book describing his teaching approach, I became extremely interested in the program. As I spent time helping out with administrative aspects of the program, I got the chance to see the difference EMTAH was making in my community. I attended events like the CCAA Pumpkin Carve and knew that there was something very special going on in this program--going above and beyond the efficacy of other nonprofit organizations with which I have had experience. I'm currently working with the students and staff at EMTAH on an incredible project, and it is such a good experience to see what a difference the opportunity for creative expression makes in the lives of young people. I am so proud and fortunate to be a part of this organization and to know such a great group of people.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...
the chance to see real change happening. There's a lot of rhetoric in the nonprofit world, and it can be disheartening, but EMTAH is consistently doing positive work in my community.
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
wonderful people who have made long-term commitments to the program and the youth involved. EMTAH is very unique in that sense.
If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...
inspire a whole generation to find their creativity.
