The Musicians Foundation is a non-profit granting organization that awards aid to U.S.-based professional musicians in need of assistance due to personal crisis, issues of health, natural disaster, or other emergency situations.[1][2] It was started in 1914 when an organization known as "The Bohemians" (New York Musicians Club) took the first step toward establishing a fund for their fellow musicians by producing a concert featuring several distinguished artists of the day.[3] Now its own organization, the Musicians Foundation gives grants to musicians of all genres and from all over the United States.
