• Harmony in Motion: Empowering Melodies With Clarinets & Flutes

  Funded Sep 11, 2024

  The fight for quality music education in our schools is an ongoing one. It is a fight against bureaucracy, against politics, against indifference, and against the narrow dogma offered up by too many of our leaders regarding education policy.

  Yet, despite all that, over the past month I have been filled with hope. All of you have demonstrated your tremendous heart, generosity, and wisdom by investing in my students. I promise you - they won't let you down. They really are musical kids who LOVE to perform. Your donation will help our music program to continue and to thrive.

  It has been so FUN to see so many people from different corners of my life coming together for this cause, and it has been so AMAZING to receive such compassion from people who I will never meet.

  Please remember, even though the world has its problems, the world also has YOU! And you're the kind of person who makes a difference.”

• Fun Folders!

  Funded May 26, 2024

  These folders helped my students to stay organized. It helped them keep their music in a safe place. The folders have their name and instrument on them to help them to know where to sit.

  Fun Folders help kids stay on top of their papers and they help to organize the classroom.

  Imagine having your music with you every day because your band room has amazing folders to hold your music. No more forgetting music at home or having your music fall to the floor.

  With your help we set up nicely in our room.”
