BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY
 
1 Access to the music library courtesy of CSRA recipients through our web site.
2 Opportunities for individuals to receive  grants for career development, i.e. recording and composition.
3 Creating financial support for individual music instruction and education through grant programs.
4 Creating opportunities for schools, universities and colleges to receive grants for music education programs.
5 Through musical education, our children learn the art of co-operation by learning to play together.
6 The preservation of Canadian musical culture by supporting our professional musicians as well as our new, developing artists through composition and recording grant programs.
7 Providing opportunities through contracts and agreements for every province to have a CSRA affiliated non-profit recording studio available for their local professional musicians and new developing artists.
8 Concerts and recitals showcasing Canadian musicians.
9 To give the street musician (busker) an opportunity to make a professional recording so he or she may promote themselves and obtain contracts with agencies or concert promoters to get some paying gigs.
10 By implementing the CSRA objectives we can instil hope in a seemingly hopeless situation by giving the other 98% a chance to develop their talent and become a productive part of our communities.
11 Most importantly, give the underprivileged child an opportunity to learn how to play a musical instrument and an opportunity for career development once his or her musical abilities have reached a desired level through instruction/education.
12 Providing something everyone enjoys - MUSIC. Created by musicians all across Canada, supported by the private sector. Music crosses all borders and involves all cultures. Everyone enjoys some form of music. It is the musical thread that ties us all together.
