Pianos to the People
Empower Young Musicians
Introducing the American Samaritan Pianos to the People Scholarship: an opportunity for young, budding musicians to embrace their passion for the piano, regardless of financial barriers. We fervently believe in enlightening children's lives through the transformative gift of music, a free piano.
Founded by ReBecca Evans
Pianos to the People
ReBecca Evans, daughter of American Samaritan founder Douglas Evans, created this part of the program to share her lifelong love of the piano. Growing up around a family dedicated to helping others, ReBecca wanted to carry on that legacy by making music more accessible to children and families. Her goal is simple: to bring the warmth, joy, and connection of a piano into homes that might not otherwise have one.

Pianos to the People
Led by Dani Kochis, Lead Piano Technician & Program Coordinator, Pianos to the People is American Samaritan’s way of giving the gift of music to families and kids across Colorado. Each piano is carefully cleaned and inspected by Dani and our team before being rehomed—ensuring every instrument is ready to inspire its next musician.
Since the program began, we’ve rehomed over 2,000 pianos into family homes, helping create opportunities for learning, joy, and togetherness. Our goal is simple: to make music accessible to every child, regardless of financial circumstances, and to keep great pianos playing for generations to come.

Why Our Scholarship Stands Out
This isn't merely a scholarship; it's a musical revolution. Our vision is to democratize music education. By gifting pianos, we’re nurturing an everlasting adoration for music, envisioning a world harmonized through melodies.
Music possesses the innate ability to unify, ignite creativity, and foster growth. At American Samaritan, we're committed to ensuring every child taps into the transformative power of music. Regardless of economic background, we believe in equipping children with the means to embark on their musical odyssey.
Champion the cause of music? Be it supporting a budding musician or endorsing a noble mission, American Samaritan deserves your attention. Our steadfast dedication to music education and its universality is creating harmonious ripples in young lives.
