Our Mission: A song may seem like a simple thing; something most of us take for granted. But for the students of Armour Elementary School on Chicago’s Southside, music means everything: expression, self-confidence, a reason to stay in the classroom and off the streets.
Sadly, like many Arts departments, the Armour music program faces the chopping block in 2008 due to lack of funding. Without emergency financing to keep this inspirational program afloat, these young musicians will be forever silenced.
Save Our Song is dedicated to ensuring that the melodies at Armour School continue to play. Please join us in giving the children of Chicago a reason and the means to sing their own song.
What We Do: Strive to keep the arts alive among Chicago public schools through fundraising and creating community awareness. Mostly, we put together great events such as happy hours, galas and parties to raise money for these young musicians while have a good time.
