The Kelly Clarkson Show Features FG4K!
We’re still taking it all in.
Free Guitars 4 Kids recently had the incredible honor of being featured on The Kelly Clarkson Show—a moment that felt both surreal and deeply meaningful for our entire community. What began as a small idea to put guitars into the hands of kids who otherwise wouldn’t have access to music was suddenly being shared on a national stage rooted in joy, generosity, and heart.
Kelly Clarkson has built her show around celebrating people and causes that make the world a little brighter, and we were incredibly grateful that she chose to spotlight Free Guitars 4 Kids and the kids we serve.
A National Spotlight on Music Access
Being featured on the show wasn’t just exciting—it was validating. It affirmed something we’ve believed from the beginning: music matters, and access to it can be life-changing for kids.
During the segment, we were able to share the heart of our mission—providing free guitars to kids facing barriers due to foster care, housing insecurity, financial hardship, and other challenges. Music becomes a tool for expression, confidence, and connection, and seeing that message resonate on such a large platform was powerful.
A Small Gift with a Big Purpose: The FG4K Air Guitar
One of the most fun moments of the show was getting to give Kelly something a little unexpected—our Free Guitars 4 Kids Air Guitar. It’s playful, a little ridiculous, and completely on brand for us.
But it also has a serious purpose.
The FG4K Air Guitar is something we sell on our website to help raise funds for real guitars for real kids. Every Air Guitar purchased helps us put an actual instrument into the hands of a child who needs it. It’s a simple way for supporters to join the mission, spark conversations, and support music access at the same time.
You can check out (and grab) your own FG4K Air-Guitar here!
Gratitude and What Comes Next
This moment belongs to so many people—our donors, volunteers, partners, and the kids who inspire everything we do. We’re incredibly thankful to Kelly Clarkson and her team for using their platform to shine a light on music access and the work of Free Guitars 4 Kids.
Opportunities like this help us reach more people, tell more stories, and—most importantly—get more guitars into the hands of kids who need them.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us. We’re just getting started.
