Music & Memory at UCLA

The purpose of Music & Memory is to promote and carry out the mission of the parent Music & Memory non-profit organization, which is to bring personalized music into the lives of people with a wide range of cognitive and physical challenges through digital music technology, vastly improving quality of life. Further, we would like to help advocate for Music & Memory’s goal of making this form of personalized therapeutic music a standard of care throughout the health care industry. Goals The goals of Music & Memory are: • Create a volunteer program with a Music & Memory certified Nursing Home. • Hold a fundraiser in which we can: o Donate the money to Music & Memory o Sponsor a nursing home(s) to get Music & Memory certified o Help financially support the chosen nursing home's Music & Memory program. • Hold a yearly iPod drive to contribute devices to the chosen nursing home's Music & Memory program. • Hold one or more screenings of Alive Inside, a documentary based on Music and Memory. • Hold events in which a speaker will visit and inform interested students and faculty on how personalized music affects people with a wide range of cognitive and physical challenges in diverse care settings and the overall purpose of the Music & Memory organization. • Hold weekly or bi-weekly e-board meetings where we will review the goals of the organization and plan future events. • Use our organization as a model for future Music & Memory student organizations nation-wide.
