Any solution in today's world must be "Evidence Based" with "IMMEDIATE" signs of success and goodwill. Community volunteers give their precious time selectively and want to know that their time counts toward a Big Picture that is immediately viewable. ARBECY has children with no music background or experience (disabled and non-disabled) performing Bach & Chopin within 2 minutes of training. The solution to facilitate wellbeing and belonging with an easy activity that rewards the participants, volunteers, and audience. Since 1977, every one of these performances has welcomed "Happy Tears" from audiences and family members.
The leaders of this project ARE NOT “ELECTED LEADERS” of our communities; they are “SELECTED LEADERS” of our communities that have participated in ARBECY Community Projects. Many are children who are blind, autistic, racially diverse, young & old, deaf and deaf-blind, mentally & physically “Challenged, Normal OR Exceptional”.
Our project’s community-based solution creates and nurture successful building blocks for children by ensuring they grow up with a strong sense of self, purpose, and belonging. A few most promising aspects of this project are:
- It’s Sustainable
- It’s Replicable Model for other communities;
- It creates “Self Sufficiency” via fundraising abilities for future years; and
- It creates an “All Inclusive” army of community members (regardless of ability/disability, race, creed, age, etc)
The most innovative and impactful dimensions of this project are:
- It's "Quick & Easy" to set up;
- It's ability to sustain and build it's own funding;
- It's adaptability to other projects who need longterm population engagement, funding, and public image branding;
- It's ability to create "Seamless Collaboration" between projects that appear to have nothing in common; and
- It's ability to create "Lasting Friendships" between ARBECY members this project and the "Changemakers of the Future"
This project can be replicated anywhere in the world. It also expands the current Changemaker Leaders Membership to include: Blind, Deaf-Blind, Cerebral Palsy, Disabled Veterans, GSW Victims (ie: Gabby Giffords-Tucson Congresswoman) or Orlando Shooting Victims (June 2016 victims of mass shootings in Florida etc) and technology giants from Microsoft, HP, and many others.
As ARBECY's inventor is self-funded and only patent holder. I can make decisions for the use of ARBECY in the future Changemake projects for many innovated projects. The ARBECY Effect releases creativity and joy that is already inside of a person. It is a catalyst for change. The change already exists inside of everyone.
