Hope After the Storm is a new chapter of Texas Music Project’s Music Heals initiative, inspired by 13-year-old Skyler Derrington, a survivor of the devastating flood in Kerrville and a young artist using music to uplift others. As families and students continue to recover, this campaign focuses on restoring access to music by replacing instruments lost in the flood, supporting Kerrville ISD music programs, and offering songwriting opportunities through our Song of Hope program.
Skyler’s story of resilience shared on national platforms including FOX & Friends, and the Patriot Awards, reminds us that while tragedy can take much, it can’t silence the human spirit. This campaign honors those who were lost, stands with the families grieving, and brings healing through creativity, community, and the power of music.
