MINI: Driving Hope
NYC schools with music programs have a 94% attendance rate, yet such programs have declined by 47% since 2007. To raise
awareness of this, MINI and non-profit Sing For Hope filled NYC with 50 hand-painted pianos, plus one "MINIPiano" on wheels.
This roving concert vehicle not only showed off MINI's storage space, it brought 21-straight days of live music to all five boroughs.
After the program, the pianos were donated to NYC schools.
