Josh Groban's Find Your Light Foundation Donates $1.25 Million Toward Arts Education Programs

The Find Your Light Foundation (FYLF), founded by global superstar Josh Groban, announced that in its most recent grant cycle it awarded over $1.25 Million to 189 nonprofit organizations in 33 states which will provide high quality arts education to over 300,000 K-12 youth. 

In addition to its regular grantmaking, FYLF also made two special grants to The Last Repair Shop Fund and the Music Rising National Disaster Relief Fund to support their efforts to restore music programs and support music students and their teachers who were impacted by the wildfires in Los Angeles.

The full list of Grantees includes organizations working with youth in theatre, dance, music, visual art, and literacy. Grants are selected through a competitive review process, and funding comes from the Foundation’s many supporters across the nation.

FYLF Founder and Board Member Josh Groban said: “These Grantees reflect the incredible work being done by teaching artists and educators everywhere to inspire students to explore their creative talents and dreams – especially in neighborhoods and cities where arts funding doesn’t always reach those students with the greatest need. I owe my career to incredible teachers who unlocked the door to arts and creativity for me and I’m proud to pay that forward through the work of the Board and team at this special Foundation.”
