Company Performance Metrics
Guitars not Guns is a nonprofit organization that provides free guitar instruction and instruments to foster children and at-risk youth. The organization delivers structured eight-week classroom-based guitar courses that teach basic chords, rhythm, musical notation, and instrument care. Classes use small group sizes and high teacher-to-student
ratios, with qualified volunteer instructors guiding students. Guitars not Guns supplies acoustic guitars, learning materials, and classroom space access at no cost to participants. Youth who complete the program earn the right to keep their guitars and can return for more advanced instruction. Through these music education services, Guitars not Guns offers constructive creative outlets and mentorship for young people affected by violence and other adverse experiences.
