The VH1 Save The Music Foundation inaugurated its Ambassadors program in 2008 around the theme, First Make Music, Then Make History. The campaign, spearheaded by a group of Ambassadors that included Beyonce, Jamie Foxx, Chris Webber, Gavin DeGraw, NE-YO, John Rzeznik, Natasha Bedingfield, The Fray, 3 Doors Down and Venus Williams, committed to being the Foundation's most powerful advocates and fundraisers, lending their unique celebrity status to deliver key messages through a national press campaign about the importance of music to a child's complete education. The First Make Music, Then Make History campaign's goal was to remind the public that many of our greatest leaders and visionaries - Eleanor Roosevelt, Bill Gates and Bill Clinton all share a common trait. Before they made history, they studied music. At the core of the movement, the VH1 Save The Music Foundation aims to remind the public that Music Education equals Brainpower and they too can affect great change by taking action. The program continued with the 2009-2010 class, which included Jason Mraz, Nick Lachey, Kelly Clarkson, OneRepublic, Fall Out Boy, MAndy Moore, Chrisette Michele and Colbie Caillat. The new Ambassador's join these incredible artists in helping to support music education in our nation's schools.
