The mission of Guitars not Guns is to provide guitars and lessons to foster children, at risk youth and other deserving children. We serve children between the ages of 8 and 18. No child will be turned away. We are not anti-gun, we are anti-gun violence and we can offer an alternative to violence.

Our goal is to stop violent behaviors in schools and in the community. We will try to divert as many children as possible from the self-destructive behaviors of drugs, alcohol, crime and gang activity. By exposing children and teens to music, we hope to engage their creative potential and offer them an alternative to the increasing narrow of choices presented to them. Music can calm a troubled young life and it can give a child something to embrace during an often difficult time in their lives.
