About Us

The Music & Memory Chapter at Duke University (Duke M&M) is an undergraduate organization that connects students with residents of local care facilities living with Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases through musical intervention. By drawing on music from an individual’s past, we aim to evoke deep emotional memories—helping residents reconnect with themselves, their loved ones, and the world around them. Duke M&M supports certified Music & Memory programs in local care facilities by curating personalized playlists, hosting fundraisers and equipment drives, engaging residents through music listening sessions and live performances, and facilitating other musical activities that bring joy and spark memories. Students also coordinate on-campus awareness events, including panels, talks, and film screenings, to highlight the therapeutic power of music. Through these efforts and their work with residents, students gain hands-on experience in end-of-life and long-term care while building meaningful connections with the community.
