All you have to do is add your thoughts to Jamie Foxxs’ thoughts about what music mean’s to you at www.vh1savethemusic.com to enter to win a private screening of The Soloist in your home town. For each submission, DreamWorks & Universal Studios will make a donation to the Save The Music Foundation, an organization dedicated to improving the quality of education in America’s public schools by restoring music programs in cities across the country, and raising public awareness about the importance of music participation for youth.
