Music to Your Ears
Orange County based Music for a Cure will be closing doors as of Dec. 31, 2012, although it’s not the end for important music therapy programs in hospitals that has reached more than 30,000 children in SoCal.
Music for a Cure’s mission to share music with critically ill children will continue as it merges with Musicians on Call, a nationally recognized non-profit that brings live and recorded music to the bedsides of patients in healthcare facilities across the country. “ Closing Music for a Cure’s doors is just a technicality and our mission will continue through Musicians on Call’s work. We are extremely grateful for all of our donor’s support over the past 10 years and hope their contributions continue to support this cause,” comments Murphy Karges, Founder of Music for a Cure.
Members of Sugar Ray founded the organization in 2002, inspired by the life of a young fan, Ryan Michael Bates who lost his battle against cancer at age 16. Music For a Cure produced fundraisers and provided grants to support music therapy programs and music therapists at several Southern California children’s hospitals.
