Heartstrings Network

Uniting generations, one song at a time

Connecting the teens and seniors of our community through song, performance, and shared stories.

What is Heartstrings?

Heartstrings Network is a volunteer outreach program that connects teen musicians with senior homes. Each performance creates joyful and meaningful experiences for everyone involved. Through our network, these incredible opportunities become more accessible to teens and seniors across Los Angeles.

“Seri truly lit up the room with her beautiful performance at Ivy Park Playa Vista. Our seniors love seeing up-and-coming students share their talents and gain confidence on stage, and they always enjoy giving thoughtful feedback afterward. Seri’s willingness to volunteer her time brought so much joy to the residents, and her talent and kindness were deeply appreciated.”

Testimonials

Dylan Barrett, Activities Director at Savant of Santa Monica Senior Living

“Having a teen volunteer to sing and play guitar for the residents at Savant of Santa Monica was a truly heartwarming experience. The music brought so much joy, energy, and connection to the room—many residents smiled, tapped along, and even sang with the performer. It’s incredibly meaningful when young people take the time to share their talents and brighten someone else's day. We deeply appreciate the kindness and generosity shown in volunteering. Moments like these make a lasting impact. We are grateful for the gift of music and the warmth it brought into our community that day.”
