A Double Bass-ic Need for Space

Help me give my students some safe parking spaces for our double basses!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Young-Esparza's classroom raised $1,057

My Project

An organized space is important in a band room, but never more so than when it becomes an orchestra room! We are a growing orchestra and are very happy to have new double basses. We are trying to carve out a special space for these expensive instruments to live among the band world.

By helping us get a new bass rack, you can help us keep our combined band-orchestra space organized and help protect these fragile instruments from harm.

This project will help all of our students respect the space of our music room, but more importantly, help maintain instrument health!
