Pencils With Passion: A Non-Profit Making a Difference in the Dominican Republic | Lilly Thomson

We are delighted to highlight Pencils With Passion, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that aims to improve the lives of students attending Collegio Christianos and Celeste Faro, two schools in the Veron area of the Dominican Republic’s far eastern coast. At Grindaholik Media Group, we had the opportunity to work with Pencils With Passion to design their website and bring their mission to life. The founder of Pencils With Passion, Lilly Thomson, was inspired to start this organization during her Girl Scouts journey, where she received her Bronze and Silver Awards. The final step in Lilly’s scouting career was to earn her Gold Award. For her project, Lilly decided to raise awareness of the issues that children in impoverished areas face when it comes to receiving a quality education. Through her research, Lilly discovered that the two schools in Veron lacked essential learning materials and resources, making it difficult for students to receive a proper education. She felt compelled to make a difference and started Pencils With Passion, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing these schools with the resources they need to thrive. Pencils With Passion is committed to connecting schools, communities, and individuals to improve education in impoverished areas. Their primary objective is to ensure that students attending Collegio Christianos and Celeste Faro have access to the learning materials they require to succeed. At Grindaholik Media Group, we were inspired by Lilly’s story and her dedication to enhancing the education of children in the Dominican Republic. We wanted to create a website that not only showcased Pencils With Passion’s mission but also made it easy for donors to support their cause. Our team worked closely with Pencils With Passion to design a website that is visually appealing, mobile-responsive, and user-friendly. We also included features such as a donation page and volunteer application form to encourage visitors to get involved. Through their efforts, Pencils With Passion has achieved significant milestones. They have provided essential supplies such as pencils, paper, and books to schools. Thanks to the support of generous donors, they have been able to make a tangible impact on the lives of children, families, and staff in the communities they serve. We are honored to support Pencils With Passion’s mission and inspired by the dedication of Lilly and her team. Their commitment to enhancing education in impoverished areas of the Dominican Republic is truly remarkable, and we look forward to seeing the impact they will continue to make. If you would like to get involved and support Pencils With Passion’s mission, please visit their website and consider making a donation or signing up to volunteer. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children and families in need. For more info, visit them online: http://peniclswithpassion.com

Royalties & Publishing What you need to know!

Are you an aspiring musician or songwriter looking to earn money from your creative work? Understanding music royalties and publishing is essential to protect and profit from your music. In this blog, we’ll cover the basics of music royalties, the different types of royalties, and how music publishing plays a vital role in managing and distributing your music. Music royalties are payments made to songwriters, composers, and performers for the use of their music. The four main types of music royalties are mechanical royalties, performance royalties, sync royalties, and print royalties. Mechanical royalties are earned when a song is reproduced or distributed, such as in a CD or digital download. Performance royalties are earned when a song is played on the radio, streamed online, or performed live. Sync royalties are earned when a song is used in a movie, TV show, or advertisement. Print royalties are earned when sheet music of a song is sold. Music publishing involves the administration and exploitation of music copyrights. A music publisher’s role is to find opportunities to exploit songs, negotiate licensing deals, and collect royalties on behalf of the songwriters and publishers. Publishers typically take a percentage of the earnings in exchange for their services. In the following video series, music industry expert Tynia Coats will provide valuable insights on how to navigate the music business and maximize your earnings as a musician or songwriter.
