Help those who are helping others; invite charitable organizations to apply for a grant!
Join us as a Volunteer with Jazz for Peace™.
Rick Della Ratta and Jazz for Peace performed at the United Nations in New York on September 25, 2002, leading a band of musicians from multiple continents in a concert that is now considered one of the most significant cultural events of our time. This UN concert sparked a benefit concert series that has raised funds, publicity, and awareness for over 400 non‑profit organizations and supports an educational program that brings jazz back into schools and donates instruments to underprivileged children.
Over the past year, Jazz for Peace has garnered support and praise from distinguished Americans such as Senator John McCain, Congressman Dennis Kucinich, activist Noam Chomsky, NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and many others worldwide who value the impact of music on humanitarian causes.
