World Music Development

World Music Development was established in August of 2012 and received its 501-c-3 nonprofit status in May of 2018. We are operated by a volunteer member board of directors with a vision to create global peace through music. To continuously strive towards this vision, our mission is to improve and enhance communities with music, through worldwide artist partnerships, music programs, and nonprofit support. We financially or materially support select nonprofit organizations whose missions focus on education, nutrition, housing, healthcare, and economic development. Some of the organizations that we have supported include Schools for the Children of the World, Hope for Children of Africa, Building Hope, Summit Musicians Relief Fund, Summit Habitat for Humanity, Friends of the Fairplay Library, and South Park Food Bank. In a 2012/13 collaboration and partnerships with Schools for the Children of the World and Hope for Children of Africa, we were able to assist in raising funds to complete the building of the The Gbarnga Community Learning Center in Bong County, Liberia. In October of 2012 we supported Friends of the Fairplay Library by producing a small concert with portion of the proceeds going to FFL. More recent work includes a collaboration and partnership with Summit Musicians Relief Fund. On Tuesday, July 24th, 2018 SMRF produced a Benefit Concert to raise funds. World Music Development assisted by providing free entertainment and music production at this event through our Play for a Cause program. In June of 2018 we established the WMD TRIBE; a collaboration with select artists/musicians/bands to assist in our fundraising efforts through concerts and events. Not only we work to improve lives at a local level, but our efforts have allowed us to make a difference globally as well. Nonprofit Tax ID#: 46-1654788
