Music Education for Thousands of Children

Founded initially in Venezuela and quickly spreading worldwide with the aim of keeping impoverished children away from the streets, "El Sistema" operates in our country under the name of Music for Peace Foundation. While the foundation has provided music education to thousands of street children within its structure to date, there are now students who have emerged from among those children and reached the capacity to give music-related lessons, such as guitar teaching.

Instilling a Love for Music in Children

The group, whose lessons received intense interest, continued to make its success known by going abroad in 2011 within the framework of a joint program. The club, which aims to reveal children's talents and keep them away from crime by instilling a love for music and drawing their attention to it, was first opened in 2005, and there are now many formations operating under different names that serve the same purpose.
