Bass-ic Music Education!

Help me give my students a basic bass guitar to learn and practice how to play music together in a group.

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Little's classroom raised $439

This project is fully funded

My Students

My students are all young adults who are interested in playing music together. They are at really different skill levels, and excited to learn from and teach each other.

Music Club is focused on playing live music, and students coming together across social groups to practice and learn to enjoy playing music together.

My Project

This bass will last through multiple years and be shared by multiple students. We hope to ask for donations to support multiple basses guitars, but we've got to start somewhere!

Our Music Club has opened for prom, provided the musical intro and intermission to the school plays, and performed for students at lunch and during assemblies.

Help replace our previous instruments which were stolen during a break-in shortly before the pandemic, so we can get our students back on their feet and comfortable learning from and playing along with each other.
