Due to the capture of Afghanistan by the violently anti-music Taliban, the top priority for all Cultures in Harmony funds raised since August 15, 2021 is emergency support for Afghan musicians. Our founder, William Harvey, taught violin at Afghanistan National Institute of Music from 2010 to 2014 and is presently managing a WhatsApp group representing more than 300 musicians and family members whose lives are at risk. Your generosity saves lives.
