State Farm helps save Music

I love to see when big companies or corporations help out in our communities. I feel that they need to give back, especially to the kids. My son is graduating from 5th grade in May. I am glad to say my company has helped his school wherever possible. And along the way so many companies are as helping them. Our children are the future CEO's of these companies and we need to invest in them now. So I was very glad to pass this information to you about State Farm Insurance.

State Farm has been collecting new and used musical instruments. State Farm provides a monetary donation to salvage diminishing music programs at predominantly Hispanic schools across the U.S.

As the main sponsor of this year’s Latin Billboard Awards that will occur next week in San Juan, Puerto Rico, State Farm recognizes the importance of music education at an early age and hopes to continue working to promote these programs in schools.
