The Faith in Music Foundation, a new faith-based nonprofit dedicated to supporting musicians, officially launches today with a mission to eliminate financial barriers that prevent musicians from sharing their gifts with the world. Founded by Michael Sweet (of iconic rock band Stryper) and his wife and manager, Lisa Champagne-Sweet, the foundation believes that music is a universal language with the power to change lives, build communities, and inspire hope.
"We started this foundation because we saw too many talented musicians struggling to keep creating in an industry that's become increasingly challenging," said Michael Sweet. "God placed this on our hearts back in 2013, and after years of conversations and planning, we're excited to provide the resources artists need to record, tour, and grow with excellence."
The foundation offers two grant programs designed to support full-time musicians who are committed to enriching others through their work:
- Touring Support Grant: Provides financial assistance for travel, lodging, and other expenses related to live performances. Artists can apply for funding for upcoming tours to cover projected costs or for past tours that resulted in financial losses.
- Recording Support Grant: Offers funding to help cover the costs of studio time, production, mixing, mastering, and other recording-related expenses.
The organization invites donations to directly impact musicians facing financial challenges, with every contribution helping musicians who are struggling to keep creating in a tough and ever-changing industry. To donate or learn more, visit www.faithinmusic.com.
