Music education is a core program and value of ours. In 2022 we lent our support to the Children's Choir of the Gustav Mahler Conservatory (based in Irapuato, Mexico) so they could pay for transportation to perform Mahler's Symphony No. 8 at the International Cervantino Festival. The festival is visited by more than 450,000 people each year and receives substantial national media coverage, both on TV, radio and social media, with ~4 million followers on Facebook, Twitter, and the festival's virtual channels.
