  • Orchestra Organization

    Funded Mar 27, 2024

    Thank you so much for donating to this high school orchestra. A classroom that feels unorganized and chaotic is not a pleasant place to be. Your donation goes towards helping our orchestra room become more organized and a place that students do want to be. I truly appreciate the support that you have shown.”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Utter

    Funded Oct 10, 2021

    Thank you so much for your incredible donation for the Brinley Middle School orchestra program to receive some much needed instruments. The violins will be used by at risk students in my orchestra program and they are so excited to receive them. Thank you again for your generosity that has enabled our program to receive more instruments.”

  • Strings for the Orchestra

    Funded Nov 8, 2020

    Thank you so much for your contributions to the Brinley Middle School Orchestra program. I was able to use the funds you so generously donated to purchase replacement strings for students that had broken strings but couldn't afford to replace them. I was able to replace so many strings on the student's instruments. They were so happy to have fully functioning instruments. I could not have done it without your help. Thank you again for your wonderful contribution to the Brinley Orchestra Program!”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Utter

Students are learning from home for the foreseeable future. To participate in orchestra, they need an instrument to play. We will continue to learn technique and music we just need the instruments to do so. Your donation will help students who have 2-3 years playing experience extend their knowledge. It will also help them have an outlet to relieve some of the stress and anxiety that has been so prevalent during this pandemic. These instruments will be loved and cared for by ecstatic students who simply need to keep playing.
