Music
Is The
Mission.
The Sam Sherman Music Foundation supports veterans, active-duty service members, and military families pursuing careers in music by meeting them where they are through education assistance and career grants.
The Mission

For Everyone Next.
Founded in honor of Sam Sherman, this foundation exists to help military-connected individuals pursue meaningful futures in music.
Music has the power to create purpose, connection, healing, identity, and opportunity. We back the people behind the noise — with funding, creative support, and community.
Move forward loudly, creatively, unapologetically.
Don't Just Watch.
Make Some Noise.
Whether you show up at an event or back the mission — every move helps a military musician get louder.
