With the help from Tim Hortons and the Northumberland community, SONG has raised $16,579 in funds to continue providing free music programming and opportunities for children and youth in the region.
SONG offers 6-18 year-old students life-long social and leadership skills using a model we all understand: music.

Everything students need to participate is free thanks to donors and volunteers.
