Notelove is a 501(c) non-profit organization dedicated to giving free music lessons to low-income students in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. We are looking for high schoolers, age 14-17, who would be interested in joining our organization as either an instructor or a behind-the-scenes volunteer. As an instructor, you will be paired up with an elementary to middle school aged student to teach lessons to. This requires at least 2 years of experience on your instrument. As a behind-the-scenes volunteer, you will be expected to help with Notelove events, such as recitals, Music and Me, and fundraisers when asked. This requires no experience.

Regardless of position, this is a steady source of volunteer hours (our hours are also usable for the presidential service award) and a great way to develop your teaching skills!

Thank you to the Parent Volunteers listed above who have recently volunteered!
