Help me give my students the opportunity to learn how to play string instruments!
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. H. Tom's classroom raised $223
This project is fully funded
My Project
My students love a safe environment where they can learn how to play an instrument with their friends and enjoy creating music for all to hear! A lot of the instruments are donated, which is a great start - but they need new strings to play. That's where your help comes in to allow these instruments to be played by first-time musicians to build a passion and appreciation for music. With these donated items, the students will be better equipped to perform without fear of broken instruments and have the confidence to boost their self-esteem and motivation to go on to brighter dreams.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
