ABOUT THE FOUNDATION
A broad purpose. A thoughtful beginning.
We believe there is value in making space to learn, to create, and to take part in community life.
OUR MISSION
More access.
More ways to connect.
Sixteenth Note Foundation supports educational, artistic, and community initiatives that expand access to meaningful experiences and strengthen the communities they serve.
Based in California, the Foundation is at the beginning of its work. We are building our programming thoughtfully, starting with Music & Arts and leaving room for educational and community initiatives to develop over time.
As our work grows, we are interested in opportunities in the Bay Area and the communities our initiatives serve.
ONE FOUNDATION. AN OPEN HORIZON.
Our name has a rhythm.
Our purpose has room.
A sixteenth note is a small part of a larger composition. Our charitable purpose extends across the arts, education, and community life.
HOW WE ARE BEGINNING
Starting with shared experiences.
Music & Arts is our first active initiative. Its development centers on concerts, community performances, collaboration, and opportunities for people to participate in music.
Future areas of focus may include education and youth, school-related charitable activities, community giving, and other qualifying charitable initiatives. These are possibilities for future development; they are not active programs today.
