Sweetwater has donated $20,000 to the National Association of Music Parents in an effort to support the completion of the feature documentary film “Marching Beyond Halftime.”
The film demonstrates the benefits that come from participating in music programs through the stories of individuals who have been successful because of what they learned in school music, as well as through showcasing several band programs. The movie was produced and directed by Sara Flatow.
“I have been committed to supporting music education for my entire adult life,” Sweetwater founder and president Chuck Surack said. “Music is at the center of my life personally, at the center of Sweetwater as a music retailer, and is one of my top philanthropic priorities. I am personally very excited about the potential impact ‘Marching Beyond Halftime; could have on prevailing attitudes about the importance of music education. It’s every bit as important as academic subjects, and I believe this film will make that crystal clear.”
