The Songs of Love Foundation creates personalized songs for children facing serious illness, disability, or emotional hardship. Each song is written by a professional songwriter and built around the child’s life, interests, and personality. These custom songs give families something deeply personal—music that reflects who their child is, not what they are going through.

The foundation has also expanded this work to include personalized music for seniors, particularly those living with dementia or memory loss. Through its senior music and memory care music programs, Songs of Love creates custom songs that help seniors reconnect with familiar memories, loved ones, and emotions. Families and caregivers often describe moments of recognition, calm, and joy that emerge when a song feels familiar and personal.

What many people don’t realize is that this is a completely free service. As long as a child or senior qualifies, all a family needs to do is fill out a simple request form on the Songs of Love Foundation website. That’s it. From there, a songwriter is matched and a one-of-a-kind song is created at no cost. As a nonprofit music charity, Songs of Love exists to remove barriers and make the healing power of personalized music available to those who need it most.
