Elementary Musicians Need Keyboards!

Help me give my students keyboard pianos to use in our music class

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Samuel's classroom raised $801

This project is fully funded

My Project

My elementary students have a strong interest and desire in learning how to play the piano! Out of all of the instruments, piano is one of their favorites and one that they are most interested in. Your donation of keyboards can help them fulfill their passion for learning a new instrument and exploring everything about keys! My vision is to use the keyboards in small group rotations while also teaching beginning piano basics to all Prek-5th students at my school. Having keyboards in the classroom could change the type of access that students have to learning about music while enhancing their creative skills!
