Help me give my students a jammin' rhythm section and a pumpin' bass.
FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Dyer's classroom raised $602
This project is fully funded
My Project
We used to have a program of full wind and percussion instruments. COVID turned wind instruments into an issue for a few years, so now we have more percussion and guitar and bass players than we can handle! Now we need to add some instrument and amp support so that everyone can learn how to jam together.
Our bass players are playing on a bass with no amp, and they deserve to ROCK OUT!
One of them only has two working strings, so we cannot use it currently. Even with this, our students are determined to play and contribute to our ensembles.
Please help us get our bass players jammin' like we know they can. Our students are so eager to make music together, and they love drumming and making up beats as a class. Last year for graduation, we rocked outside for graduation for all the neighborhood to hear. The neighbors loved it (most of them....) and are asking about our next performances. Please help us!
More than a third of students from low‑income households
