My Students

The Arts are being cut during this time of budget crisis. Don't let our students lose this wonderful program.

My students come from a small town in a remote area.

Many of them come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. We are a small school facing many cuts; and we do not want to lose our band program. We are expanding our band program to get students interested starting in fifth grade. Many of our students can not afford an instrument.

My Project

Please help our students acquire instruments so that they do not have to miss out on engaging in band. Students will learn a lifelong skill, they will gain an appreciation for the arts, and learn to work together as a group to be a part of the creative process.

With your help our students will be able to achieve great things.

Students that would normally not have the opportunity to be a part of the band will have that chance. Please help our students achieve their dreams.
