D’Addario is thrilled to partner with Guitar Center for International Women’s Day. On March 8th, 50% of every sale of D’Addario products purchased at Guitar Center or Guitarcenter.com was donated to our new Music Education for Girls Initiative. This partnership falls in line with D’Addario’s overarching mission to inspire performance in all musicians, and create positive social change both within and beyond the music community – especially for the next generation of players.

The D’Addario Foundation proudly supports Internal Creations, a classical guitar program dedicated to empowering youth through music education while providing a safe, nurturing, family-based learning environment for its students. The program is completely free of charge and fundamentally believes that everyone should have an equal opportunity to experience learning music and abolish fear in his or her lives.

“With the help of the D’Addario Foundation we have been able to cultivate independent leaders and spark a love for music and life in our students while providing the opportunity to get “at risk” youth into accredited 4 year universities for music.” – Jahzeel Montes, Founder & Executive Director
