Give the Gift of Music
This season, Little Bear Cares is bringing music to life in our community. Every request from local artists and teachers is carefully reviewed and fulfilled, so your donation turns into instruments, lessons, and inspiration — transparently and directly to those who make our town sing.
Little Bear Cares is dedicated to sustaining independent music venues, uplifting local artists, and expanding access to music education for young people. Over the past few years, we have noticed some recurring needs in our music community. Through grants, donations, and community partnerships, we hope to strengthen the entire ecosystem of live music, ensuring that creativity, connection, and culture thrive for generations to come.
Independent artists are the lifeblood of live music. They are where emerging talent finds its voice, communities come together, and we are able to share music. Yet these vital spaces and creators often face immense financial pressure, from unexpected emergencies to everyday operational costs like new string. By supporting independents, we ensure grass roots music continues to inspire, connect, and transform.
Yes. Little Bear Cares is currently in approval process for 501(c)(3) status. Through our partner Givebutter, all donations are tracked and once approved, all donations will be fully tax-deductible as allowed by law.
Every dollar directly supports independent music spaces, empowers local artists, and expands musical opportunities for young people. Funds may also be used to respond quickly to emergencies, ensuring artists and venues can continue to create and perform. We maintain a transparent, impact-driven approach, so donors will be able to see the difference their generosity makes.
