"I'm honored that Savoir Agency invited us to partner with them to create Future Disruptors," says Co-Founder and Executive Director, Wendy Winks. "One of Savoir's founders, Tamalin Srisook, has a very musically talented daughter, so she knows first-hand how music is the key that unlocks some kids' lives - giving them passion, purpose and connection. All children should have the opportunity to experience music and the arts, and it's just not available for many low-income children today. This event will help to inspire, raise awareness, and change the lives of some very deserving scholarship students."

"Now more than ever we see the need to support the Arts and Music in today's youth," says Co-Founder of Savoir Agency, Marta Stattmiller. The underfunding and defunding of Arts in American schools is appalling and without a doubt will have a lifelong impact on our children. Arts and Music are a way of expression and crucial to a child's development. We started Future Disruptors to help combat this injustice, inspire families, and showcase some of today's rising talent."
