79 Melodic Caring Project: Rockstars Healing Kids Facing Life Threatening Illnesses With Music

Levi and Stephanie Ware founded the Melodic Caring Project in 2010 after they had to bring a live concert to a sick child’s hospital room after an emergency bone marrow transplant prevented her from attending. Now they’ve worked with bands like Cold Play, The Black Eyed Peas, Direks Bentley, and other major names to help these kids see through the darkness. They’ve also extended their services to music therapy, songwriting sessions, and more— pushing through times so tough they lost their home whilst raising three children— just because they saw a need and believed in their mission. You’ll learn how music therapy allows the brain to remap it’s abilities by facilitating neuroplasticity, how running a for-profit business can support you nonprofit, how music is distinctly stored in the brain, the power of music therapy, the hardships faced by families whose children are battling rare cancers, and more. Zach’s book is on the way it’s officially in the hands of an editor, and on the final path to publishing!
