Joyful Noise Drum Company, Inc. is committed to donating a portion of its proceeds to help support local, national, and international charities and children relief organizations. In other words, a portion of the proceeds from each instrument sale is purposed to meet the need of a child or a community of children. In this way, we hope to create a legacy extending well beyond the instruments and the music we play.
