Band for Everyone!

Help me give my students Bb Trumpets, a Trombone, and Clarinets for band class.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Godbee's classroom raised $750

This project is fully funded

My Students

I teach sixth, seventh, and eighth grade band classes, as well as a jazz band, various small ensembles. I also lead our Tri-M Music Honor Society.

My band students are passionate and motivated to do well in school.

We are a small Title I school with students of all backgrounds. Because of the economy, we receive no funding for our band program but my students continue to thrive and grow musically.

My students are eager to learn and want to succeed. We could use any assistance in providing necessary tools and instruments to be successful!

My Project

I have a large beginning 6th grade band this year of almost one hundred students. My program does not receive any funding and we are unable to purchase instruments for students in need.

I have loaned all of our current school owned instruments to students who are not able to afford the monthly rental fee that many music companies require.

I have a few students who really need instruments for band class and your donation would cover the cost of the trumpets, trombones and clarinets, which is our current need.

Your donation will not only help these current students but also future band students who will need to borrow an instrument due to economic hardship.
