How the funding works
Happy Gives Foundation raises money for music education by building giving into businesses that already have customers who care. Rather than competing for the same donor attention as every other charity, we work upstream — and then grant what we raise to the organization that does the teaching.
Our first initiative is a partnership with Gen C Coffee and Bloom Arts Foundation, with a goal of raising $1,000,000 for music programs in schools.
Four organizations, one giving path.
A clean and focused model for funding music in schools through mission-aligned partnership. Everyday commerce generates the support, the Foundation holds and grants it, and a program partner with existing relationships inside schools spends it on students.
Access to creativity, expression and guidance through music-centred programs in K–12 schools.
Funds run through Happy Gives Foundation, a 501(c)(3) public charity, so the path is documented end to end.

The Partnership
Happy Gives Foundation works with businesses whose customers already care about what we care about. Gen C Coffee and Purity Coffee generate charitable support; Bloom Arts Foundation turns it into music education for kids.
The First Project
Our first initiative channels funding into music in schools — instruments, teaching support, artist-led programming, and creative access for students in schools where arts funding has been cut back or was never there.
How It Flows
Support is generated at the point of purchase, held and granted by the Foundation, and spent on programming by Bloom Arts. Three roles, one path, no guesswork about where a gift goes.
Who does what.
