In May 2000:

The Harp Consortium evolved from Hospice of the Valley’s Integrative Therapeutics Department led by Joyce Beukers. The following year, The Harp Foundation became a separate corporation to extend its reach and services.

From the Start,

​The Harp Foundation was uniquely positioned as a collaborative initiative between healthcare facilities and therapeutic harpists. Its mission was expanded to serve developmentally and physically disabled children, oncology patients, under-served populations, and other individuals with special needs.

In 2015,

The Harp Foundation became Therapeutic Harp Foundation (THF).

Impact in 2020:

​Each year, THF provides live harp music to over 160,000 patients, caregivers, and medical staff in 27 healthcare facilities throughout the Valley.
​
We remain the only therapeutic harp program in Arizona.
