Sparks for Success

We can't say it enough: Thank You! Thank you for your time, thank you for sharing about Sparks, thank you for donating to support vulnerable children of inmates and other forced parental separation during Amplify Austin. YOU are the reason these kids are turning away from making negative life choices despite hard circumstances and finding a better way forward in life through music therapy.

2 HOURS To Reach Sparks for Success's Goal for Amplify Austin! (And who doesn't love Kid President's dance party to cheer us on?!) 😊🎶https://www.amplifyatx.org/organizations/sparks-for-success

We are 4 hours away from the end of Amplify Austin, and we need YOUR help to reach our goal! Your donation of $16 gives a child of an inmate a music therapy session at no cost to them. Most of our students are facing challenges such as homelessness, food insecurity, moving frequently, and the trauma of being forcibly removed from a parent. Help us teach them emotional and social skills to navigate their challenges and learn to positively cope so they can stay in school, graduate and succeed in life! https://www.amplifyatx.org/organizations/sparks-for-success

Did you know? Last year, 84% of our students said they learned to make good choices at school instead of getting into trouble because of participating in music therapy. The sessions are free to them because of your contributions. $16 helps a child attend one session. Let's work together to help children be prepared socially and emotionally for challenges they face in life! https://www.amplifyatx.org/organizations/sparks-for-success

Rise and shine! It's Day 2 of Amplify Austin, which means it's your opportunity to come alongside children facing forced parental separation by supporting Sparks' music therapy program: https://www.amplifyatx.org/organizations/sparks-for-success

A Sparks student, Sunny (not her real name), refused to participate in leading any music therapy activities all year. Then one day, she led not one but TWO activities! This Amplify Austin, would you consider helping a child facing parental separation develop lifelong skills, such as leadership, and change their trajectory in life by giving them access to music therapy? https://www.amplifyatx.org/organizations/sparks-for-success
