Why Eddie Van Halen Donated 75 Guitars
. Per Van Halen's request, the Foundation distributed the guitars to music programs in public schools throughout the Los Angeles area where there are not enough instruments to meet the demand of students enrolled. "Music is the universal language. It has the ability to transcend and convey every human emotion that exists without saying a word," said Eddie. "Music kept me off the streets and out of trouble and gave me something that was mine that no one could take away from me. Music education and families are dealing with the economic times, and I wanted to help them. If I can help a kid discover a liking, or even a passion for music in their life, then that's a wonderful thing. Music has provided a good life for me and hopefully it can help make life better for others with this donation." more on this story hennemusic is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
