My Project

Dear Donors,

Imagine the harmony of over 150 young musicians honing their craft in our cherished piano lab, which has nurtured talent and creativity for over 15 years.

However, as our instruments continue to produce beautiful music, the benches supporting our students are showing the wear and tear of time. We urgently need to update our piano benches to sustain this legacy of musical excellence.

Your generous contribution can provide the comfort and stability our budding pianists need to excel. New benches will enhance their learning experience and ensure that our piano lab remains a cornerstone of inspiration and achievement for many years to come.

Help us keep the music alive and support our talented students by funding new piano benches today. Your donation will make a tangible difference in their educational journey and in the future of our musical community.

With heartfelt gratitude,

George H. Diehl, Director of vocal music and piano performance
