Droppin the Beat

Droppin’ the Beat is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering youth through the arts, mentorship, and creative expression. We use music—specifically DJing, drumming, and other rhythmic art forms—as tools to build confidence, discipline, and community among young people.

Our programs connect students with experienced artist-mentors who guide them in developing artistic and life skills that extend beyond the classroom. Through hands-on sessions, performances, and workshops, participants learn teamwork, leadership, and self-expression in a safe, supportive environment.

At Droppin’ the Beat, we believe the arts have the power to change lives. By providing access to music education and mentorship, we help young people find their voice, discover their potential, and become positive contributors to their communities.
