A great music program at any school level requires a huge amount of effort - ranging from physical effort to financial effort - from many parties, which include teachers, students, families, and our local community members. All parties involved prosper from the end results - a musical performance put on by the students in absolute confidence and pride. However, to begin a great music program is a very colossal task in itself. The materials and items in this project are the first of many steps towards building what I believe will become an amazing program for years to come. The donations for this project will be the beginning of what is years of students benefitting from the enrichment and improved quality of life that a musical education provides. Many of these items are essential to providing the foundational security for a proper music learning environment. From having the proper place for students to set their sheet music on, to be able to explore the range of a guitar, to not having to worry about purchasing a new string if one breaks adds to that foundational security. My students will be forever grateful to you for enriching their lives through the power of music, and I will be forever grateful for your help in building something new. Thank you for your support!
