Vision | Bootsy Collins Foundation

Back in 1999 a voice came to me and said, Bootsy you’ve had your 15 minutes of fame now it is time for you to pass it on to the youth so that they can have theirs. The sole purpose for the BCF is to allow kids of all backgrounds to be able to come together and learn how to work together like we had to as a band, today they don’t have to play with each other they can create music in a box and make money at it as well. So who needs the headache? What if you knew that this headache holds the keys to your soul and some mighty blessings that just make you feel good all over. You may not get paid for exercising but it makes you look & feel great. These values are priceless when you can work as a team with the aim to become united. Working as one will bring the proper balance in your life. Our society is now quickly removing the human touch and good feelings for one another away.

BCF is very concerned about this alienation of souls and want to help bring people back together instead of continuing our quest for total isolation.

The creative process works best when there is a relationship between one another.
The creator of human life did not make us to work alone.

Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care. So we are very concerned about our future farmers and hall of famers.

BCF will create opportunities to play whatever instrument you choose to play from piano, oboe, banjo, guitar to turntables, it is their choice but it is up to us to help provide them with the tools to help minimize the obstacles that they will face in this unforgiving life we all have to endure. We at BCF are determined to grow with the times while bringing the good old times back into our future. Our youth need more reliable and respectable platforms to demonstrate their creative energies as the musical process continues to unfold so that they can look forward to their future and have fun while in the process.

"Say it Loud-An-Instrument-4-Every-Child.” This program is designed for the preservation and education of past, present and future programs to keep the youth motivated and educated on music and how they too can become major players in this on going music arena. While building a circle of trust, people will learn the secrets of keeping music alive while re-introducing themselves and their music to future generations to come.
