Mrs. G.
Grades 3-5

We are a charter school in a low poverty area with a variety of special needs students. I am the music teacher of grades K-8 and do not have a classroom budget for any supplies. The teacher that was here before me bought all the materials with his own money and took it all with him when he left.

We do not have a sound system. We have parents screaming during the performances because they can not hear the kids. The students work very hard and no one can hear them.

I would like to have a portable sound system for my students to be able to experience and learn about true performance and getting up in front of an audience. The students work so hard practicing that all their work is for nothing because they can't be heard in the gymnasium!

You will make it a dream come true for my students to give them an opportunity that many of them have never had. Help them to express themselves as only they can!
