Cellos To Round Out Our New Orchestra

My new music program needs 2 cellos.

  • $1,929 goal

Hooray! This project is fully funded

Hooray! This project is fully funded

I am a 4th year special education music teacher working in an extremely high need school. This fall I will be teaching at a brand new high school. As a new school, resources will be extremely limited - making a challenging situation even more so. Our special education students will be entering a new school that will have minimum supplies. Their interest in music is already well-demonstrated from their time in Junior High. Providing my students with cellos will help us form our first instrumental ensemble. Through this ensemble, students will have the opportunity to perform - both in school and around New York City. Success in performance will help improve their self-esteem and have long-lasting effects throughout their lives. Your donation will make it possible for my students, from low income families, to experience music in a form they otherwise might not be exposed to. The impact you will have will be far-reaching.
