Join Us This Giving Tuesday in Uplifting Every Voice

This Giving Tuesday, your gift has the power to create lasting impact. At the Denyce Graves Foundation, your support uplifts overlooked musical voices and helps ensure that the future of vocal arts reflects the full richness of our shared history. Rooted in social justice and guided through the lens of music, DGF works every day to spotlight hidden legacies, elevate emerging talent, and expand access to transformative artistic experiences.


Why Your Giving Matters
The work of the Denyce Graves Foundation is only possible because of people like you. Every contribution helps preserve histories that have been overlooked and lifts up the next generation of artists who deserve to be seen and heard.

As we look ahead to 2026, the need for this work is greater than ever. We are preparing to expand Shared Voices to new schools, bring Hidden Voices to more stages across the country, and create new opportunities for young artists to grow, perform, and thrive. Your support is what keeps these programs alive. Your generosity ensures that these stories are not lost. Your belief in this mission fuels everything we do.

This Giving Tuesday, we are asking you to stand with us. Your gift will help us reach more artists, more audiences, and more hearts. Together, we can ensure that every voice, especially the ones history has tried to quiet, is heard.
