 R E S O L U T I O N

   

        WHEREAS, The Texas Music Project, a charitable organization 

  

 dedicated to preserving the state's musical heritage and supporting 

  

 and developing the next wave of musical talent, is making a 

  

 difference in the lives of disadvantaged youth through its Music 

  

 Heals Program; and

  

        WHEREAS, Over the past two decades, the Texas Music Project 

  

 has promoted music as a positive creative outlet for young people; 

  

 recognizing a need for enhanced support of music education, the 

  

 organization has raised funds, donated instruments, and offered 

  

 instruction, mentorship, interactive seminars, and live 

  

 performances to underserved and at-risk students; through these 

  

 efforts, the organization has invested in the future of Texas music 

  

 and inspired many gifted young musicians to reach their full 

  

 artistic potential; and

  

        WHEREAS, Alongside its educational efforts, TMP's Music 

  

 Heals Program has brought hope, joy, and healing to children 

  

 confronting medical challenges by providing funding and resources 

  

 for hospitals' music therapy programs; among the most notable 

  

 projects under the Music Heals Program, the Song of Hope initiative 

  

 empowers young patients to create their own personal anthems of 

  

 hope for their healing journey, and it has garnered media attention 

  

 and helped to showcase the transformative power of music therapy; 

  

 and

  

        WHEREAS, Through its Music Heals Program, the Texas Music 

  

 Project has given countless young Texans the opportunity to 

  

 experience the wide spectrum of physical, mental, and emotional 

  

 benefits of music therapy, and the organization is deserving of 

  

 praise for its efforts to uplift those who are facing adversity; 

  

 now, therefore, be it

  

        RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas 

  

 Legislature hereby recognize October 12, 2025, as Music Heals Day 

  

 in Texas and commend the Texas Music Project for its support of 

  

 music therapy to foster the health and well-being of children in 

  

 need; and, be it further

  

        RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be 

  

 prepared for TMP as an expression of high regard by the Texas House 

   

 of Representatives.
