About Melodic Caring Project

MCP is driven by the husband and wife team of Stephanie and Levi Ware. They have seen first-hand that people from other cultures and ethnicities respond to songs with lyrics they couldn’t even understand because music can be felt and understood.

It is a proven fact that music crosses both language and culture; it crosses the boundaries of belief and upbringing. Music is a universal medicine suitable for treating any ailment whether physical, mental or psychological.

There are two things That MCP believes to be profoundly effective, healing and encouraging:
(1) People showing genuine love and compassion to one another, and
(2) Music

The mission of the MCP is to bring these two together and share them with people in need.
