INSTRUMENTS OF CHANGE, INC.
BRANDON, FLORIDA

Instruments of Change, Inc. is a philanthropic organization dedicated to enhancing educational opportunities for children in economically disadvantaged regions by providing musical instrument instruction and performance experiences. Founded on February 5, 2009, and incorporated under Florida state laws with the filing number N09000001190, its headquarters are located at PO Box 1657, Brandon, FL 33509. The organization's mission is to profoundly impact the lives of disadvantaged children through the donation of musical instruments, structured instruction, and opportunities for performance. By fostering a nurturing environment where children learn to play musical instruments, Instruments of Change aims to improve academic performance levels and instills valuable life skills such as hard work, communication, and determination. This initiative resonates with the belief that enhancing education through music creates ripple effects throughout communities by promoting economic stability in future generations. The organization relies heavily on community support through regular monthly donations and contributions of gently used or new instruments, including trumpets; clarinets; saxophones; flutes; guitars; drums; and violins. Instruments of Change actively recruits volunteers with musical training expertise to provide lessons to children who receive donated instruments. Potential volunteers are encouraged if they can play basic notes on a trumpet or chords on a guitar, as Instruments of Change will equip them with the necessary resources for teaching. The company has been reinstated as of October 17, 2019, with its last annual report filed for the year 2024. Glen Schubert serves as President and Director, while David Aritus and Kris Aebischer hold director roles, leading the organization's efforts to strengthen communities through music education.
