Grammy Nominated Producer Kashif Sponsors Music Camp for Foster Youth
Entertainment Monday, July 5th, 2010
Mega-producer and songwriter Kashif, will team up with the Department of Children & Family Services to make a difference in the lives of hundreds of children in foster care with a ground breaking music and recording camp.
From July 12-23, 2010, teens attend Kashif University in Inglewood, CA, where they will receive classes in music, recording, producing, piano, drums, guitar, singing and more. All the instructors at Kashif University are working professionals in music and education. As proof of their accomplishments, youth leave the camp with recordings that they created. Kashif, who helped launch the careers of superstars Whitney Houston, Kenny G and Meli’sa Morgan with his hit music, works closely with the students and is always looking for new talent.
Kashif’s own recordings have sold over 70 million copies worldwide. His music is a mainstay on the radio, though he considers himself one of the industry’s best kept secrets. In the world of foster care, however, he is a giant. His Kashif University is a two week music and recording camp for youth ages 8 through 18.
“Summertime is a critical time for all youth, explains Kashif, a time when many get into trouble because they are idle. For youth in foster care though, it is especially important as many have experienced five, ten or even 20 foster homes by age fifteen. For these youth this leaves an emotional gap that is almost impossible to fill.
