Believe Music Heals
is dedicated to bringing
healing through music
to those who need it most.
We are a not-for-profit organization that brings people peace and hope during times of distress and hardship, or at the end of their lives, by using music as a vehicle for self-expression, creativity, comfort, and transformation.


A Believe Music Heals Benefit
Thank you to everyone who donated to Believe Music Heals by buying raffle tickets at the Summer Beats Festival at Ounces Outdoors. There have been many winners every Saturday in August who got to choose either a goody bag from The Magic Flute or a bottle of delicious wine from Indian Peak Vineyards. To us, you’re all winners!
We rely on your generous donations to be able to do our important work. Please spend time on the website learning about the lives that we’ve transformed through music. Please check back often as we have many exciting programs coming soon, including a music program at San Quentin. Click here if you wish to donate.
We promised you that we would have a drawing for a grand prize. If you’re the lucky person who has the winning raffle ticket stub, you won a guitar.
Congratulations!
The winning number is:
354603
Please contact
essence@believemusicheals.org
If we don’t have a winner within two weeks, we’ll draw another number. We’ll keep on doing that until the grand prize has been claimed.
Good luck and we hope our paths cross again soon!
With so much gratitude,
Essence
