The HATT Foundation Symphony Orchestra Project empowers at-risk children ages 12 years old and up by providing quality music education to keep at-risk children away from the street. We provide at-risk children the opportunity to experience hope, accomplishment, a positive environment, community, passion, and creativity through the gift of music.
How to Get Involved
The HATT Symphony Orchestra Project is primarily funded by regular individuals and enterprises that have a great interest in helping at-risk children to provide Hope* Life* Eternity* through HATT Sponsor A Child Program. Participants will have a chance to get on the front row seat of an at-risk child's activities to have a better life and a safer future.
We offer many ways to donate by cash, credit card, debit card, check, Amazon Smile, Paypal, or AmEx. Just click on the green "Donate Now" button above to make your donation right away.
