All students are always looking for new ways to be expressive. When funded, this project will give students that can't afford to rent or buy a musical instrument a chance to play in band. This project will give those students a chance to be expressive with an instrument. This creative outlet also allows students to interact with others they usually do not interact with. My goal is to give more students a chance to play an instrument without the worry of finances. Having a set of classroom instruments will take away the worry and stress involved with affording an instrument. With these instruments, students will be able to play in concerts and march in parades. The instruments provided in the list are instruments we are unable to provide to students right now. These instruments will help foster a child's creativity.
