My Students

We have a great group of students. Many of the students at my school qualify for free lunch. They are a very enthusiastic group of musicians. Each year, my school organizes a great music program for the students. The students receive a top-notch music education that enables them to put on great presentations for the school community. The parents really appreciate the music that their children create.

We need an electric guitar, guitar book, and incentives to have a great show for our school!

My Project

If this project is funded, the students will have an electric guitar, guitar song book and incentives for the shows and practices.

We have a lot of talented guitar players at our school.

Another working electric guitar means that more children can perform in our shows.

Each year, the students put on great shows for the school community. The school community loves the shows. The students do a fantastic job. The parents love that our school provides opportunities for students to perform. It gives their children a chance to learn beautiful music. The guitarists are very well received by both the children and their parents.
