I have never posted here before. I am not sure if this is something of interest to the readers here. If not let me know. I am associated with Guitars not Guns. We offer free guitars and free guitar lessons to foster kids, at risk youth, and other deserving children. We are not anti-gun, we are anti gun violence, especially in schools, and we offer kids an alternative to violence. We serve kids between the ages of 8-18. No child is turned away for lack of funds. I work with our new San Joaquin County which started in October 2005. We serve kids and teens in Lodi, Woodbridge, Galt, Stockton, and surrounding areas. You can check out our website to learn more: www.guitarsnotguns.org and you can email me at csgogh@yahoo.com. I am posting here to try and find local people who may have interest in such a music program for San Joaquin County kids. We are a non-denominational non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization. We only teach guitar, we do not teach or promote any religion. Our program is available to kids with any/all beliefs/faiths. We can join efforts to provide our music program with any community youth group, after school group, or church youth program which serves San Joaquin County or Galt kids. Our chapter's staff is small, we need help with fund raising projects and with informing teachers, community members, and local businesses about our program. If you would like to talk with me please email me your phone number and I will call you. Thanks. I am sorry if this is not a subject of interest to list here. There were none to compare, so I shared information about our chapter.
