Program Overview
Mundi Project places donated pianos with public organizations in order to provide students, performers, and the general public greater access to quality instruments. Pianos placed with public organizations provide education and performance opportunities in congruence with Mundi Project’s overall mission–to actively break down socioeconomic and generational barriers by providing quality music experiences for all.
The process begins by completing the following application. Mundi Project staff reviews application material on a rolling basis to determine eligibility. The unique needs of each applicant organization are considered and determinations are made as instruments become available for placement. Every attempt is made to ensure that each piano is placed where it can be used most effectively.
Once an applicant passes the initial screening, Mundi Project will schedule a virtual meeting with the organization representative(s) to help determine the best instrument location within the facility, share best practices in piano maintenance, and discuss post-placement tasks related to the piano.
If the applicant is accepted, they will be obliged to pay a $300 program fee. This fee represents the program costs (moving, tuning, etc.), not the piano's value. This fee helps Piano Bank be sustainable and accessible to the community by covering a portion of the program costs. Together, we can make affordable piano ownership a reality.
