Project Apollo is a youth-led, federally incorporated non-profit organization that operates across Canada with the mission of increasing music accessibility and appreciation among underprivileged youth. By gaining access to music education, young individuals are able to be nurtured through thoughtful and innovative methods that not only develop unique musical abilities, but also foster creativity, resilience, and lifelong skills that extend far beyond the classroom.
As privileged students receiving high-quality music education from an early age, we recognize the profound impact music has on our lives. We believe in its power to shape thought, cultivate individuality, and influence the way we interpret the world. Our mission is to ensure that every child has the opportunity to experience the joy of music, whether through accessing a variety of instruments, or experiencing basic music education. For these reasons, Project Apollo was created to help amplify the power of music and distribute opportunities to more individuals, especially the less fortunate communities.
