Our current mission is offering and managing music education scholarships and live events to raise money (Concerts,  Free Performance Nights and Donations) for organizations like Habitat For Humanity and Big Brothers & Sisters. We recently awarded another Music For Humanity Scholarship, the "Music For Humanity Bill Perry Scholarship"!

Our Story:
In 2001, Kurt Irmiter had an idea to develop a web site where emerging recording artists could donate a percentage of their CD sales to a worthy cause and in turn benefit from an internationally promoted web site and know their music is helping do some good in the world. The idea was, beyond the listener enjoying the music and musicians profiting from selling their music, Humanity would also benefit! Each musician would choose the organization/cause they wish to donate to.  That was the idea, but it only got as far as registering of the domain name where you are now.  Nothing further happened due to other demands, interests, life... But the idea was still there and generally thought to be a good one.

Skip forward to 2005 and Kurt gets a phone call from Barry Adelman, who wants to know if Kurt would sell him the domain, noticing it was registered several years ago and there was still no web site! Barry was working on the release of his first CD and wanted to donate ALL of the proceeds from his CD sales to Humanity. So he dreams up the idea of a web site called musicforhumanity.org!  Well long story short, Barry and Kurt hit it off, found they have some common ideas in terms of the concept of music benefiting humanity and we have teamed up to make the idea a reality!  MusicForHumanity.org is now happening, growing unfolding and you can be a part of where we go with this idea... People enjoying Music AND contributing toward doing good for Humanity and the World.
