Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
Reeds are essential for students playing woodwind instruments like clarinets, saxophones, and oboes. Here's why donating reeds is crucial:
Access to Practice: Reeds enable students to practice regularly, improving their skills and confidence on their instruments.
Participation in Music Programs: Lack of reeds can prevent students from participating in rehearsals and performances, limiting their musical development and involvement in band or orchestra.
Financial Relief: Purchasing reeds can be expensive, especially for families facing financial difficulties. Donating reeds reduces this burden and ensures all students have access to necessary supplies.
Equal Opportunities: Providing reeds to students in need creates a level playing field, ensuring every student has the chance to excel in music regardless of financial circumstances.
Inclusivity: By supporting students with reeds, we promote inclusivity within the music program, fostering a sense of belonging and encouraging diverse participation.
Donating reeds directly impacts students' ability to learn, practice, and fully engage in their musical education, making it a valuable contribution to their success.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
