The Beginning...
It all began in 2010
with a song about being
BRAVE, STRONG & COURAGEOUS!
Shortly after recording this song in 2011, our 5-year-old daughter had two young friends receive a cancer diagnosis. Through their fight, these two families were enCOURAGEd by this song & began sharing it with other families going through treatment. By 2012 hundreds of CD's with the song "Strong and Courageous" had been donated to children facing health challenges. The need was great, the mission was clear and our nonprofit was born...
I AM COURAGEOUS
Because hospitals are frightening for children, our mission is to enCOURAGE children receiving treatment by providing uplifting music & entertainment.
After realizing the healing impact on children and families, we began traveling full-time across the country singing in children's hospitals in 2021.
To increase the impact of our visits, IAC created CCTV content for hospitals by creating IAC TV.
We developed over 15 hours of curated music and videos designed to lift spirits, ease pain and enCOURAGE young patients and their families. Our content expands the missions and is tailored for children of all ages, background & needs, offering a joyful escape when needed most.
Annual impact:
-
95+ LIVE music programs
-
14,000+ people
-
Thousands of miles
-
Thousands of smiles
I Am Courageous is fully funded by generous donors who believe in the power of music and the impact IAC is making.

Sadie & Jaxon


They are the inspiration behind
I Am COURAGEOUS.
These precious fighters both lost their battle with cancer, but their short time on earth was all about staying positive and making the world a better place.
They were the definition of
STRONG & COURAGEOUS.
They embraced life, loved big
and will forever be the driving force behind IAC!
