ARIA - Global Music Collaboration for Everyone

♪♪♪ Help Us Connect Music Makers Across the Globe with ARIA

In many parts of the world, talented young musicians have no one to play with or learn from. Music programs are being cut, and isolation (especially after the pandemic) has left creative kids without support. We're here to change that.

We created ARIA to connect these isolated musicians and give them a virtual stage to share with others. ARIA is an online platform that lets anyone, from a 12-year-old beginner to a seasoned music teacher, collaborate and learn through music with others anywhere on the planet.

Why It Matters: Music brings joy and confidence, but many people lack access to it. Think of a child in a remote area who wants to join an orchestra, a hobbyist guitarist who can't find band members locally, or a school that lost its music program funding. ARIA will open the door for all of them. With your help, a student in an underserved community will be able to log into ARIA and jam with peers in another country. A retired music teacher could mentor kids across the world from her living room. Strangers will become bandmates and friends. In a time when the world often feels divided, we want to unite people through the universal language of music.

Your support will help us enhance our ARIA's MVP (Minimal Viable Product) to include the Education module, create a library of music lessons, and sponsor the first wave of music students and educators to join for free.

Here's the breakdown:

Your donations will deliver tangible outcomes, not go into a black hole, and help us making ARIA accessible and impactful!

Any beta user or supporter to our case will have the opportunity to share a quick testimonial about why ARIA matters to them.

Who We Are: Music is at the core of our funding team.

Antonio - Antonio is a seasoned music professional with three decades immersed in the craft, now channeling his extensive guitar expertise alongside his skills as a producer and sound engineer. Leaving Italy as well to pursue his music dream, his journey has taken him far beyond his beginnings, marked by successful tours across Europe, Israel, and even the idyllic stages of the Maldives. This diverse international experience has not only honed his musical talents but also broadened his understanding of the unifying power of music across cultures. Now, with his multifaceted skillset, Antonio continues to contribute his rich experience to the ever-evolving soundscape.

Our Promise: We are deeply grateful for any support. We know $40K is a big ask, but even a few dollars truly can make a difference. We've poured our hearts, personal savings, and countless hours into ARIA because we believe in its power and vision. We dream of a teen songwriter in Nigeria co-write a song with a pianist in Canada - they can create something beautiful together and become friends. Moments like that should happen every day, everywhere. If you donate, we promise to keep you updated on how we're putting the funds to work (look for updates with real stories of the students and musicians you're helping). You'll be part of the ARIA family, and we can't wait to share the music you'll be making possible.

Every dollar helps. For example, a $20 donation could sponsor a month of ARIA access for a school student who otherwise couldn't afford it. $100 might equip our platform with new educational content like beginner lessons for trumpet or voice. If we reach our $40,000 goal, we'll be able to launch by the end of the year and bring ARIA to thousands of users without financial barriers.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for reading our story. Even if you're unable to contribute financially, sharing this campaign with others (friends, music lovers, educators) would mean the world to us. Together, we can hit this goal and launch a platform that will bring joy, creativity, and hope to so many. Let's connect the world in harmony. ♪♪♪
