Dear Friends, As a proud member of the Board of Directors for The Jazz Exchange, I’m reaching out to ask for your support in a cause that I hold close to my heaert. The Jazz Exchange is dedicated to building community through music providing jazz education, mentorship, and live performance opportunities for young musicians in the El Paso-Juarez region.

For many of these students, music becomes more than a skill-it becomes an identity. An identity built on confidence, discipline, creativity and a sense of belonging. Things much needed in our children, in today’s society. When we invest in them, we invest in their future, hope and opportunity.

Your contributions, no matter the size, helps us continue this vital work and ensure that every child with talent and passion has the chance to be heard.

With gratitude,

Carlos A. Nin̈o Board of Directors The Jazz Exchange
