My Project

I would like to give my students an opportunity to learn through music and movement. I would like to provide my students with musical instruments that will help facilitate language, movement and music throughout the day.

Music and movement are an integral part of an early childhood classroom.

By allowing students opportunities to sing, dance and play instruments, we are encouraging language development, physical development, and opportunities for students to share and take turns with peers. Music encourages children to express themselves in ways that they may not normally be able to. It is particularly helpful for stimulating the minds of neurodivergent students.

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.

Equity Focus

At this school, more than 50% of students are Black, Latino, and/or Native American, and more than 50% come from low-income households. Learn how your donation to this school supports a more equitable education.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
