The Mewsic India Foundation
was started in 2011, an initiative of Australian cricketer Brett Lee. Under the
guidance of Innovaid Advisory Services Pvt Ltd, the Mewsic India Foundation
aims to see every child experience and benefit from the joy and power of music.
“I hope to see music become a widely recognized and powerful tool to heal, empower, educate and advocate for marginalized children across India. These kids see so much and from such a young age…. I would love to be able to give back just a little bit of their childhood”. Says Brett Lee.
With fully functional centres in Mankurd, Govandi, Dharavi, Lucknow, Surat and Hyderabad, the Mewsic India Foundation continues to expand its presence through new initiatives, including; the Music Therapy Academy, Mewsic Bus, Drumbeats & Rural Musicians Program.

In just eight months the
confidence and esteem of the 500+ students participating in the programs has
grown exponentially. The classrooms once filled with shy, timid kids just
busting to leave, are now home to vibrant, sociable youths, intent on their
practice - interacting, participating and enjoying the curriculum and classroom
activities. They laugh, and learn openly – communicating freely and confident
in their growing abilities as musicians, singers, songwriters and dancers.
Music can offer these kids so much more than just an avenue to song and dance, it has a transformative role to play in establishing valuable life skills – teamwork, co-operation, discipline, communication, fine motor skills, boosting confidence and self-esteem - skills transferrable to life, to family,to the workplace.
