Why: In response to the needs of the local public schools and their

and formed The Manilow Music Project as part of his nonprofit
Manilow Health and Hope Fund. The Manilow Music Project (MMP)
values the importance of music programs in our schools and
donates instruments and materials to school music programs. The
MMP is sponsored by Yamaha, Hal Leonard and the Toys 'R Us
Children's Fund.
