Make a Difference
Help us harness the transformative power of music to tackle Canada’s growing mental health crisis.
Thank you for your support!
Every donation, big or small, helps bring the power of music to those struggling with mental health - offering connection, comfort and hope. Together, we're using music to break stigma, build skills to improve wellness and make a real difference in the growing mental health crisis.
Be an AMPbassador
Want to help spread the word about AMP? Or run an event that supports a mental health initiative in your community? AWESOME.
Becoming an AMPbassador means you take an active role in choosing how you want to bring our mission to life. Here are a few fun ways that you can get involved:
Host a Stories and Song Event
Start a Student Chapter at your school or youth centre
Invite your friends, work colleagues or neighbours to a Plates and Playlist evening.
Check out our toolkits for these activities, or contact us at info@theawesomemusicproject.com to start today.
Can’t Host, But Want to Support?
Check out our Events page to see what is happening and support other community members.
Stories and Songs Events
Get involved in the movement by hosting a Stories and Songs event in a local pub, library or community hall. The idea was simple but powerful: someone reads a story about a song or musical memory that had a powerful impact on their life; a musician performs the music from that story, and then a mental health professional or scientist explains what is happening in our brains when we listen to music.
These events have a positive impact on the host, AMP, and the community and its participants. Learn more by downloading our guide today.
Student Chapters
AMP Student Chapters are student-led clubs that use music and storytelling to build connection, raise awareness about mental health, and create safe spaces to speak up and support one another. Through monthly activities, creative projects, and a year-end advocacy event, students explore who they are, support their peers, and lead positive change in their school community—one song at a time.
