NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, July 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Education Through Music, an organization that provides music as a core subject to under-resourced NYC schools, today announced a transformational $2 million gift from Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce in support of the organization’s work to provide high-quality music education to underserved students in under-resourced New York City public schools.

For Education Through Music, the investment will help sustain and grow even more music education programs that reach thousands of underserved students across New York City.

“At Education Through Music, we believe every child deserves access to the joy, creativity, and confidence that music education provides,” said Janice Weinman, Chief Executive Officer of Education Through Music. “Taylor and Travis’s extraordinary generosity is a powerful affirmation of that belief. This gift will help us reach more students, support more music teachers, and ensure that music remains a meaningful part of a child’s core education, especially in schools where access to the arts is too often limited.”
