Plugged In educates young musicians about how to be in a rock band, while at the same time about the importance of giving back to the community – both locally and globally.
Other goals of Plugged In include providing a place where young people can make friendships, gain self confidence, share in a common love of making music and using that to promote positive changes in the world around them.
Plugged In’s ultimate goal is to have the charitable side of the program become so significant for the young musicians that they continue to help others throughout their lives.
