  • Hands on Music (Part 2)

    Funded Oct 2, 2008

    THANK YOU!

    Thank you so much for your generous support of my music program. These instruments are going to make a tremendous impact and allow more of my students to play on instruments than ever before. There is NOTHING better than hands-on learning and you have helped to make that possible!

    It will be exciting to incorporate these instruments into our concerts, as well. Students love playing them and will be excited to get the chance and I know parents will be thrilled!

    Once again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you!!

    Best wishes,

    Funded Oct 2, 2008

    I am so thankful for your donation to our choral program! My students come from a relatively poor and at-risk environment, and it is very important for them to experience the arts as an alternative to many of the unhealthy options available to them. Thank you so much”

Not only that, but they will have the right tools to learn their instruments. Again, thank you so much for supporting our program!”

  • Help! Students at Risk! Please Send Guitars!

    Funded Oct 2, 2008

    Thank you very much for your generous donation! The students will be excited to have these guitars available for them to learn on. Most of my students cannot afford musical instruments, so your support will have a huge impact on what they are able to learn. Growing up, my public school music program had an unbelievably positive influence on my life. Now, thanks to you, these students will get to have their lives enhanced by music”

  • The Youngest Composers

    Funded Oct 2, 2008

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! My students will be so excited when I tell them today about all of the wonderful things we will receive because of your generosity. Composing music is one of the national music education standards but it is sometimes difficult to meet this standard with K-2 students. These materials will not only get them composing but will make it fun and rewarding as well. I love teaching music and you have just made it a little easier to do so. Again, thank you for your donation.
