About
The Inspire Foundation is a 501 (c) (3) non profit organization. Our mission is to bring music and the arts to ALL children with special needs. We work with schools, individuals, groups & organizations, and evaluate their needs. Then, we build a program to best serve that particular environment along with providing the tools and instruments needed to ensure that music and arts are available to every child. Through Music and the Arts, Every Child Has a Voice.
How We Began
The Inspire Foundation began when preschool music teacher, Cristine Rhodes, and her husband and music instructor, Jason Rhodes, joined up with colleagues and friends to discuss a new program Cristine was designing called Autism Sings. Together, they became inspired to do even more for this cause by forming The Inspire Foundation.The driving force behind this program was a combination of love and experience in the music field, along with their own experience raising a son on the spectrum. When their son stopped talking at the early age of two, Jason and Cristine naturally responded by using music and arts in all aspects of his daily routine. Their son is now 12, and is the founder of 'Junior Members,' a section of The Inspire Foundation for children that want to be a part of the mission.
