Kilgore the Creator
posted (August 20, 2019)
Ryan Kilgore, saxophonist in Stevie Wonder's band, is in Belize with his Kilgore music foundation.

The foundation spearheads music drives in which he provides instruments to children ton inspire and equip the next generation of musicians. Kilgore and his team reached out to the Peace work organization with an offer to pledge a donation of musical instruments and to provide outreach for musical education in Belize.

Earlier today he met with a group of young people that are all recipients of the Price Waterhouse Coopers Scholarship. Kilgore told the young people that music brings us together and that musical skill can act as a passport that can enable them to see the world as entertainers, but also to advocate for greater causes.

The Ministry of Education is hoping that music can be taught in all Belizean schools and that such an education can lead to entrepreneurship through music and the development of Belizean musicians to the highest possible level.
