The Sarah McLachlan Foundation:

The Sarah McLachlan Foundation is dedicated to the advancement of music education for young people in Canada, and in particular, to benefit youth in under-served communities.

This mandate reflects Ms. McLachlan's passion for music and her desire to share her success with her fellow Canadians. "I don't know what I would have done without music in my life when I was growing up."

The Foundation currently underwrites music education programs, which Ms. McLachlan initiates in partnership with operating cultural and/or educational organizations. Other programs may be inaugurated in the future, and they too will be designed and executed in partnerships selected through The Sarah McLachlan Foundation. The Sarah McLachlan Foundation does not accept applications for grants to third parties.

The Sarah McLachlan Music Outreach -- An Arts Umbrella Project, is the pilot project for the Sarah McLachlan Foundation.
