Vans Gives a Band! was created as a House of Vans legacy program to inspire and empower students to embrace their creativity through music and bring attention to diminishing music education budgets. Vans believes everyone should be empowered to express themselves creatively and should be given the tools to do so.

Each Philadelphia public school will have a chance to receive $10,000 of music equipment to form one of the following bands: rock band, jazz band, classical ensemble and a $10,000 grant to fund your music program.
