Power the Keys for Great Rocking Music!

Help me give my students Battery power to power their keyboards this year. We also need a keyboard stand to have the freedom to place the keyboard where it is needed.

My Project

The students are very excited about learning an instrument. They can not wait to get started. The supplies I get will be used to teach the students a skill and help foster their love of music.

Keeping the instruments in good condition is essential in Modern Band to assure the students have an instrument in good working order that allows them to learn and progress while building a connection to music that will be with them for the rest of their lives.

These materials help make this possible.

Thank you.
