Singing Machine’s new CARE-eoke by Singing Machine initiative and the Ryan Seacrest Foundation have teamed up to bring joy through music to children’s hospitals nationwide. The Ryan Seacrest Foundation has built 12 broadcast media centers, or Seacrest Studios, in children’s hospitals with two more slated to open later this year. Now, the Seacrest Studios will feature CARE-eoke by Singing Machine programming for patients and their families.
Over the next few months, Seacrest Studios and the CARE-eoke by Singing Machine teams will be rolling out programming in some of the nation’s leading pediatric hospitals including Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, Children’s Health, Children’s Hospital of Orange County, Levine Children’s Hospital, Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center, Children’s Hospital Colorado, Boston Children’s Hospital, Children’s National Hospital, Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt, Orlando Health Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children, and Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital.
CARE-eoke by Singing Machine seeks to collaborate with partners that share a mission to bring joy through music to children and adults of all ages. The initiative intends to develop a myriad of programs including research, experiences, donations, and dedicating a percentage of profits from social impact fundraisers to support mission-aligned causes and unlock the healing power of karaoke to improve mental and physical health.
“Seacrest Studios help families who have a child in the hospital find priceless moments of joy, and we are beyond grateful to align with them to help bring the fun to these deserving kids and families,” says Genna Rosenberg, Social Impact Officer for Singing Machine. “When your child has to be hospitalized, it is often a scary and hard time, and Singing Machine is excited to collaborate with Seacrest Studios to deliver on our shared mission of uplifting children and aiding in the healing process. We aim to bring our signature karaoke experience to the Seacrest Studios network to provide joy to children through this partnership.”
Meredith Seacrest Leach, Executive Director and Chief Operating Officer at Seacrest Studios, adds, “Our studio teams use karaoke to help bring joy to kids and families who are visiting the hospital, and we know this new alliance will be beneficial to families whose days will be brighter during tough times.”
