Mission and Vision
The purpose of Warrior Cry Music Project is to work with American Soldiers wounded in defense of our country. We do this by equipping them with musical instruments and lessons to aid in the rehabilitation process, and we encourage a creative musical environment. We also partner with rehabilitation professionals and other organizations that foster Healing Through Music.
Description
Warrior Cry Music Project provides free musical instruments and lessons to military hospitals and injured service members around the country. Our volunteers work with the service members at their bedside and in group sessions throughout the hospital; they also work with healthcare providers to ensure that learning music is beneficial for the wounded.
After the service members are released from the hospital, many move into long-term residential facilities on base, where they may spend 1-3 years while undergoing rehabilitation and other outpatient procedures for their injuries. Many of them are amputees and have a long road ahead of them, physically and emotionally. For many, their only outing is to attend a doctor appointment or an occasional field trip. They do have options for activities, but many are unable or too uncomfortable to take advantage of an outing.
WCMP aims to provide a reason to get out and socialize through music. If they are not able or comfortable as is the case for many, we provide easy and fun one on one sessions with them. Our volunteers help teach our wounded service members to create music, play music, record music and to just have fun.
