My Project

Our band students are passionate and work extremely hard all year long. They are often in the music program for all four years. We have many students who cannot afford to rent or purchase an instrument. This year, we have had so many students join band at the elementary, middle, and high school that we have loaned out all of our instruments and have had to turn students away. Additionally, the few alto saxophones and clarinets in the high school inventory are broken beyond repair.

A new clarinet and alto sax would enable us to include more students in the music program who are struggling to afford those instruments.

These beginner models are the perfect type to give any student from a 4th grade beginner to a high school student. These instruments are extremely popular, and we are seeing a massive program increase in the last two years following the pandemic. It is expected that the number of students in the high school next fall will potentially double and clarinets and saxophones will be greatly in demand.

Please help us provide our students with the wonderful experience that being in an instrumental ensemble can provide!
