Open to school-aged children in grades four to 12, entrants gain the chance to win a share of more than $22,000 in prize money to be put toward musical equipment and tuition.
Prizes are not limited to individuals this year - schools have the opportunity to win the newly introduced "Song writing School of the Year" Award.
The winning school will receive $5000 for the resources to put toward starting or improving their school music program.
This aligns with the charity's belief that no child should be deprived of access to a valuable music education.
Entries are open now and close at 5pm August 29.
For full terms and conditions and to enter, visit www.acmf.com.au
Entry to the competition is free - however, for the charity to continue bringing music education programs, instruments, and creative initiatives to disadvantaged children across Australia - a donation of any amount before entering is greatly appreciated.
Donations can be made at: www.acmf.com.au
"Songwriting is a highly creative process. We must encourage creativity and imagination in children so that they can reach their full potential," said ACMF founder Don Spencer.
