The Maasai Music Project (MMP), creation of GFP student Daniel Grigson and students in the Environmental Club (E-Club) of Westlake City Schools, Cleveland, Ohio is taking its music, message and mission to Kenya as part of Daniel’s 2010 Earth Expeditions Advanced Field Course. The project, which was the recipient of the 2009 Sea World Environmental Excellence Award, operates on the belief that, “science, art, and education are not separate, isolated disciplines, but instead they are deeply interconnected. And, we believe that kids’ have a voice, and they should be heard…. Unlike many service projects in Africa, MMP is not about charity, social work, or sightseeing. There will be no donor/recipient relationship. For the first time ever, kids from the US will be working with kids in Africa to unite their voices, to create original art and music together.”
