What do you do if a child came to you with tears in her eyes asking you to help her get an instrument so she could learn to play, because her mother could not afford to buy her one? Of course you would do whatever you could to help her. That is why I am asking you to help, so she can have an instrument and many others like her that could never afford an instrument. I am a counselor at a school that is made up of 70% minority and 93% poverty-level students.
