Many people, at some time or other, go through difficult situations, be they long-term or short-term.  During these times, life can feel incredibly heavy and hopeless, and individuals can get very discouraged.  While there may be resources to meet the logistical needs of these people, the emotional needs must also be met.  People who stay in difficult situations long-term may begin to feel unseen by society and lack outlets to healthily express themselves.  People who work in these situations can also experience burn-out and discouragement.

For the Folk exists to take beautiful, meaningful, hopeful music and art to those who need it most - who are usually the ones with the least access to it.
