CHARITABLE PURPOSE AND PUBLIC BENEFIT (EXCLUSIVELY CHARITABLE OPERATIONS)" IOC'S AFTER-SCHOOL BAND PROGRAM PROMOTES ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT, AND SCHOOL ENGAGEMENT." RESEARCH CONFIRMS MUSIC EDUCATION IMPROVES PERFORMANCE IN MATH, ENGLISH, AND SCIENCE, INCREASES IQ, AND REDUCES DROPOUT AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE RISK." IOC'S EARNED INSTRUMENT INITIATIVE PROVIDES FREE PERSONAL INSTRUMENTS AND REPAIRS THROUGH HIGH SCHOOL, RELIEVING FINANCIAL BURDEN ON FAMILIES AND ENCOURAGING LONG-TERM PARTICIPATION."
