What if one dollar could help a young person discover their voice, develop a skill, or find a better direction?

City Vision is launching a community music campaign with a goal of reaching 10,000 song purchases and streams. For just $1, you can enjoy an inspiring song while helping us jumpstart workshops and programs in music, art, literacy, culinary arts, technology, entrepreneurship, health, wellness, and personal development.

Every purchase brings us closer to creating safe, creative spaces where young people and community members can learn, grow, express themselves, and turn their potential into opportunity.

Our goal is simple:

10,000 supporters. 10,000 streams. One stronger community.

Buy the song for $1. Share it with your family and friends. Challenge others to support the movement.

This is bigger than a song. It is a soundtrack for change.

One song can carry a message. One dollar can support a mission. Together, we can change a community.

We already know which communities are being hit hardest by gun violence. The question is, are we creating spaces people actually want to walk into?

That is why City Vision created the Backyard Kickback. It is music, food, laughter, poetry, real conversations, and community all in one backyard. You might come for the DJ or a plate, but leave with a mentor, a business connection, or a new opportunity.

If you ride past the Hidden Gem and hear rap music, do not panic. Nobody is tearing up the neighborhood. We are using the music to bring people through the gate, because sometimes culture can reach somebody before a program ever will.

We are reaching out a hand instead of pointing a finger. We are using culture to reach people before violence does. This is bigger than a party. This is community work with a little seasoning on it.
