The Graesyn Foundation Mission Statement
The Graesyn Foundation is dedicated to raising awareness and providing support to gifted and talented students who are studying the Art of Music. This support is shown by providing students the opportunity for mental health services, financial assistance, housing assistance, scholarships, and awards at the Guitar Competitions at the University of Louisville and the Fred Fox School of Music at the University of Arizona.
When financial assistance is unavailable and/or students are not able to obtain services, such as mental health assistance through their University, The Graesyn Foundation will provide assistance by seeking out a private-pay provider to ensure the student has access to resources in times of need. Students who travel and relocate from Out of State or Internationally are particularly at risk and often need additional support to ensure they are able to maintain focus to complete their studies and meet their dreams. The changes in culture, family support, and friends affect many students, and these changes require additional support from the community and those who are able to reach out, give, and ultimately, make a difference in each of their lives.
