  • Help Bring a Strong Voice With a Portable PA.

    Funded Apr 7, 2022

    OMG!, This technology is the best ever! We perform very much; our highest record is of 32 full concert performances in one year. This does not include our local serenades, where we are asked to play for someone's birthday. After covid we strive to break that record. So we have been using the Bose s1 speaker, it is small light and powerful. Our bass guitar can plug right into it along with 2 microphones. Our students are really at another level for starting this year. Thank you so much for making this possible.”

  • Take a Stand!

    Funded Nov 26, 2019

    You help brought the right gear to our students; you gave them a real opportunity. Bringing in 3 new music stands to our students made real impact that did benefit everyone in the classroom. Music stands were delivered thanks to you.

    Rehearsals were more efficient; students immediately became more aware and motivated when practicing. A quick rise in progress was evident within the first week of using materials. These resources helped students by maximizing instructional time, and gave them a better chance to serenade. Above all, their season recital was total success; students had the opportunity to participate performing with authentic musicianship.

    Your donations really made a difference; it gave students a life learning experience. These students had the best music experience; students were making music.”
