SMA Muskurahat, an initiative by the Shankar Mahadevan Academy, supports musicians who are struggling to make a living because of Covid-19, or long-standing illness, or an accident, or just old age with none of their close ones by their side.
The Shankar Mahadevan Academy Trust donates
Rs 4000 a month per musician for their medical or daily needs.
Would like to raise funds through concerts?
In the spirit of true artists, we leave the kind of concert you want to arrange to your imagination.
What matters is that along with the corpus of funds we build,
we build an atmosphere of dignity, compassion, social responsibility.
Want to do your bit to nurture and grow SMA Muskurahat? Join an internship program in SMA Muskurahat. Want to spread the word about this program by interviewing musicians in need and sending us their stories? We would love to have you on board as an Intern.
Musicians care about musicians.
If the core idea of SMA Muskurahat strikes a chord in you, you can contribute by performing a concert and dedicate the proceeds of the show to the
musicians’ fund in SMA Muskurahat.
