Thank you Paragon Furniture for your generous monthly contributions to GMP. Your four years of continuous support have helped us build into an organization that can hire new teachers, record new material, and serve more Austin area children.

Bird’s Barbershop counts itself as a two-time supporter of the Adopt a Classroom program. This summer they matched funds from Trinity Child Development Center, and in the spring they sponsored a class at Mount Sinai Christian Academy. The next time you are in Bird’s, please let them know you appreciate their support of the Adopt a Classroom program. Other businesses can inquire about participation here.

Thank you, City of Austin

The city of Austin has contracted with Groundwork to help fund another year of classes at several Austin preschools. The Cultural Arts Funding Program supports the endeavors of Austin’s cultural industries and those who contribute something vital to this essential element of the Austin economy. This is the second year that Groundwork has secured a contract for City funding. Thank you, Austin!

The Groundwork Music project will be bringing new recorded music to the classroom and to the community at large. Introducing the Groundwork Music Orchestra features guest appearances from Ben Kweller, David Garza, Guy Forsyth and others. This album will have kids and adults alike clapping their hands, dancing and singing together.

Currently, this album is free to download at www.thegroundworkmusicorchestra.bandcamp.com. Please consider making a donation if you find favor with what you hear. Your contributions will help us to provide more recordings like this to preschoolers everywhere.
