IAAAM -Literacy Lyric

Literacy Lyric

IAAAM is dedicated to educating the youth by visiting elementary and high schools, and organizing seminar tours of African-American colleges and universities. This project was co-founded by Sheila Eldridge, Dyana Williams, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis in order to promote educational excellence using music industry professionals.

In 2008 the IAAAM Literacy Lyric Project will again tour public schools around the nation during the academic school calendar year (winter/spring/fall 2008). Featuring recording artists and prominent music industry executives, the focus of the project is to encourage and motivate the students to read while providing information about the music industry. Support for the Literacy Lyric Project is tremendous and participants have included Terrie Williams, president of Terrie Williams Agency; producer Pete Rock; songwriter/ producer Jeff Red; Bad Boy Entertainment CEO, Sean "P. Diddy" Combs; Founder of IAAAM, Dyana Williams; Cliff Brown, Esq. of Jackson, Brown, and Powell, and two of the music industry's most prestigious musicians/ songwriters/producers, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
