Music for Your Cause

If you're a nonprofit organization and want to use music to help bring visibility and support to
your cause, we can help. On a selective basis we'll provide songs written specifically to your
requirements b
y engaging independent artists through a song contest that will go out to over
400,000 songwriters and musicians around the world.

The contest allows us to deliver custom songs whose primary association is with your
organization - bringing life to
your cause. Songs can be used in a music slide show or video
that conveys the mission of your organization, or simply be used in a media player on your
website. They can also be used at events and sold via digital download as a fundraiser. Having
your own song ensures that every time someone hears it on their CD or mp3 player, they think
of your organization.

We'll work with you to identify any topics, themes or inspirational stories to present to the
songwriters to ensure the focus is on obtaining songs that are inspired by the work done by
your organization. We'll acquire the initial recordings, lyric sheets and inspiration notes from
each participant and submit the top entries to you for review and final selection. Our goal is to
provide you with songs that tugs at heart strings and create an emotional bond between the
listener and your organization.

In general the songs come from independent artists, and in many cases it's the same aritsts
whose songs are considered in today's TV shows and movie productions. We accept both
professional quality and draft recordings from songwriters and we'll arrange to have professional
recordings that are 'radio ready' as part of the service. Within reason we'll also assist in
re-writing songs and we'll provide you with the licensing you need to use the them in support of
your effort.

Although many artists will participate just from having the opportunity to have their music
contribute to a worthy cause, a cash prize will be offered to the winning songwriter as an
incentive to participate. Also, one of the key issues in attracting participants will be exposure.
The more exposure that can be provided, the more incentive artists will have to participate.

Exposure could come in the form of email or social media distribution to your supporters, the
employees and patrons of any sponsors, distribution to membership lists, as well as any
advertising, etc. You can also engage local businesses, civic organizations, churches,
schools, etc. to sell songs as a fundraiser on your behalf and increase the exposure and
financial support potential.

We charge a nominal fee to cover our expenses for this service. The cost can be covered by a
sponsor who can also get visibility and goodwill through the contest. Please understand that
we can only take on a limited number of projects at a time so we'll be selective.

To submit a request, please fill in the information below and we’ll contact you to discuss the
program in more detail. We’ll provide you with ideas on what we feel makes sense for your
organization and how to maximize the benefit to your cause.
