Customer's reviews

For many years I have known David Victor. When he was touring with BOSTON we discussed some of his experiences on the road and his desire to give back to others in a more tangible way. When he came up with the idea for Harmony & Healing, I knew it would be a world-class idea. For many years I have been aware of the healing power of music for those with illness and distress. David's mission is to provide this healing by bringing artists to the bedside or in small groups at the places of care. What a wonderful mission, and a perfect encapsulation of David's calling. Harmony & Healing is this mission. It does fantastic work, and evidence shows it improves outcomes. If attitude determines altitude, the Harmony & Healing makes the sky the limit! ~ Thomas L
Harmony & Healing is hands down one of the best music charities I’ve come across, making a profound impact as a dedicated music nonprofit. Their mission to bring the soothing power of music to those in hospice, rehab, and hospitals is truly inspiring. I’ve seen how their programs uplift patients, offering comfort to those in hospice care with gentle melodies, sparking motivation in rehab settings through rhythmic encouragement, and brightening long days for hospital patients with live performances and tailored playlists. David's group of caring musicians use music as a tool for healing and to provide comfort for those in greatest need. What sets Harmony & Healing apart is their genuine commitment to enhancing lives, one note at a time, making them a standout among music nonprofits. If you’re looking to support a cause that truly resonates, this is it—Harmony & Healing is a most worthwhile endeavor! ~ lisajoy5678
The Harmony & Healing music charity, and David Victor, have been presenting live interactive Facebook shows since March 2020, and throughout this Covid associated time. I have connected and attended almost all of these shows. I truly look forward to each show, as David brings music, stories, interviews, laughs, happiness, and positive feelings to all us of during this isolated time. It gives me a feeling of connection to others. For anyone that needs a positive enhancement in their day, Harmony & Healing provides this. Thank you David for all the time, effort, hard work, dedication, musical talent, and great storytelling you deliver. Mike Waugh – from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada ~ mike w

Questions & Answers

Are there any charitable foundations you partner with to support your mission of providing virtual musical performances to patients?
Harmony & Healing partners with facilities at no-charge to bring our virtual and in-person musical visits to their patient population. We don't currently partner with any other nonprofits.
How can I get involved with nonprofit organizations that support local charities through music performances for patients in medical care settings?
You can get involved with nonprofit organizations that support local charities through music performances for patients in medical care settings in a few ways. Start by reaching out to these organizations directly—check their websites for contact information or volunteer opportunities. Many charities need volunteers for different roles, so you don't have to be a musician to help; they also need support with organizing events, fundraising, and outreach. If you are a musician, you can offer your talent by applying to perform live-streamed sessions. Some nonprofits also encourage sponsorship or donations, allowing you to help financially or through corporate giving programs. Keep an eye out for annual events or benefit concerts where you can participate or help raise awareness, as these are crucial for funding their free services.
