“Thanks to the opportunities afforded at the semi-annual NAMM shows we have seen our network of friends, partners and fellow non-profit associates grow beyond what would have been otherwise possible. These new relationships have enabled Guitars For Vets to increase substantially its ability to offer the healing power of music to our Veterans nationwide.” – Bernie Kampf, Guitars For Vets
Please Note: We Are Going Green!
Each year, we discard pounds of unclaimed brochures at the end of The NAMM Show. This year, in an effort to lessen our carbon footprint, we are no longer requiring our partners and grantees to supply printed materials. Your on-site contact information as well as general information about your organization will be included in our Show Online Directory. Please contact Jessica Cortez if you have questions about this change.
