Hello! My name is Nirvaan Patnaik and I am a student at Sanskriti School. In 2021, I founded Project MELODY, a social educational initiative aimed at stimulating wellness among youth from underserved communities through the medium of music, focusing on broadening access to music education for students at Vision Unlimited.

So far, as part of Project Melody, I've created The Believe it or Note curriculum, which explains how music can be used to promote enrichment and well-being, as well as easy home-based routines that can be used to calm one's mind and relieve stress.

As a next step, I'd like to increase access to music's therapeutic effect by gathering funding to build an equipped music centre with basic instruments like guitars, tablas, and flutes, as well as other music systems.

All of the proceeds from this fundraiser will go to Vision Unlimited, a non-profit organisation that works with the youth. So, please help us gather funds to make this jam-pad a reality!
