Transforming Communities Through Music

The Light Up the Queen Foundation is committed to transforming our community by providing grant funding to high-quality music education programs for Delaware’s underserved youth.
Music education has the power to change lives. It enhances cognitive development, fosters pattern recognition and teamwork, and gives students hands-on experience with a variety of technologies. By opening doors for students, music education not only impacts individual lives but also strengthens the very fabric of our communities.
The funds we raise through our events and the resources we provide come from musicians, parents, educators, donors, and sponsors—many of whom are our neighbors here in Delaware. These contributions are invested directly back into our local community.
Change starts at home, and music lights the way. Join us in this vital mission.
