Program areas at Guitars For Vets
Weekly private lessons are individualized and based on cirriculum designed to help students learn at their own pace and accomodate any physical or emotional challenges. Upon completion of the curriculum each student is presented with a guitar, gig bag, strap, tuner, strings, picks, method book, and certification of completion. Monthly group lessons, open to past and current students, provide an on-going forum for veterans to continue their music education. Many graduates become active in our organization as volunteers. In 2022 the organization graduated 963 students, which includes over 3,000 lessons. There were 600 active volunteers and 117 active chapters.
