On Dec. 20, Sweetwater donated more than $28,000 worth of musical instruments and funding to be used for music therapy sessions at Easterseals Arc in Fort Wayne, Indiana, Easterseals RISE in Angola, Indiana, and Cardinal Services in Warsaw, Indiana. The instruments donated included drum sets, keyboards, guitars, ukuleles and more. The donation was first reported by local Fort Wayne news outlet Fox 55.
“It’s truly our pleasure to help enhance such an impactful program,” Jeff Ostermann, Sweetwater’s senior vice president and chief people officer told Fox 55. “We’ve been a longtime supporter of Easterseals Arc of Northeast Indiana, and this latest donation will help ensure that hundreds more individuals whom they serve can participate in the healing and hopeful power of music.”
Easterseals Arc aims to lead the way for 100% inclusion and access for people with disabilities.
