"Ukes for Kids of S.F. Bay Area" has been organized to provide free 'Ukulele and lessons to kids at no cost and support local organizations or programs that teach children music through 'Ukulele. 

Your donation and support will assure that the joy and magic of the 'Ukulele will be passed on to our next generation.

Upcoming Supported Programs:
  • "The Ukesperiment for KiDs" is a program in collaboration with No Ukes-Perience Necessary Ukulele Workshops. It is designed for kids 17 and under, and offers the opportunity to learn the Ukulele for free in a 3 month class. "The Ukesperiment" was designed to build relationships through the Ukulele. By offering these free lessons, we give kids a way to begin to break the walls of prejudice, non-acceptance, and seperation. In this community effort, I hope to add to the advocation of the Ukulele, and build lasting relationships through music. "One Uke in Every House" - iZi Holokahi. The program ends with a recital for attendees freinds and family.
