Thania Garcia Music’s leading charity MusiCares has announced its second annual volunteer day, “The Day That Music Cares,” will take place on April 26. The initiative encourages music professionals and fans worldwide to a day of volunteering, “demonstrating the power and heart of the music community,” per a press release. Songwriters and sound engineers, touring crews and record label employees will join forces with music fans to support causes close to their hearts.
Participants can engage in various acts of service such as volunteering at local food banks, organizing community blood drives, and beach clean-ups. “The Day That Music Cares unites the music community’s culture of connection and the transformative power of giving back. Volunteering strengthens bonds within communities and reinforces mental health.
Together in this shared mission, we’re harnessing the power of music to make a difference,” said Laura Segura, executive director of MusiCares. The 2023 effort saw over 1,400 members of the music community take action with MusiCares, according to the organization. Among this year’s partners are Starbucks, whose financial contributions amplify “The Day That Music Cares'” message, and iHeartMedia, leveraging in-kind promotion to spread awareness across their platforms.
