Flemingo Foundation joins the Music Project to build bridges
View(s):Flemingo Foundation, the CSR arm of Flemingo International has signed an agreement to partner with The Music Project as part of its CSR initiatives.
Flemingo will sponsor the music education for the children of Lakdas De Mel College, Kurunegala from April 2016 to March 2017 including their weekly classes, holiday programmes, festival programmes, competition as well as the bi-annual UNITE orchestra residential workshop where the Music Project children from all schools come together.
The Music Project is inspired by El Sistema (a publicly financed voluntary sector music education programme in Venezuela) and aims to foster a sense of musical achievement on an individual and personal level by providing those whose lives might have been affected by poverty, war or abuse, an opportunity to excel and fulfil their own potential within a thriving musical community. The Project aims to provide links between the children of the north and south of Sri Lanka using music as the link.
