My Project

My students are challenging themselves to start a band instrument in high school. Students in the upper level ensembles have been playing for years and now it is time for these students get to the chance. These reeds will provide the students with the essential materials for succeeding on their new woodwind instruments. These students are from all different academic and ethnic backgrounds, with the same goal in mind; becoming lifelong lovers of music! Throughout this year, the students will be facing some of the most difficult educational challenges of their academic lives. With your help and donations, they will now have a solid start and foundation towards new successes in music.
