My Project

We are requesting basic supplies and repair equipment to fix the instruments that students are playing. We need to make repairs, and add small parts that will make a big difference! Thank you for helping us to sound our best!

Students are playing their instruments now, but many times cannot play the full range because of leaks or old, dry cork that is on the tenons of the instrument.

There are in need of repair, and will immediately make our sound musical and beautiful!

Our students are working hard to make music. Your donation will help them make the music, and revitalize their instruments! Thank you and see you at the concert!

Ms. Dyer Junior High School 167 Robert F Wagner Grades 6-8
