Help Us Add Two Bass Xylophone Bars to Our Classroom!
Help me give my students two Contra Bass Bars to go towards our growing instrumentarium. Our dream is to one day have the full diatonic scale (C, D, E, F, G, A, and B)!
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Kyle's classroom raised $824

My Project
My students here in Brooklyn, NY are bright, caring, musical, and eager to learn. As a teacher, I wish that I could give them the world. Orff instruments like these bass bars help offer so many valuable lessons like intervals, the pentatonic and diatonic scales, rhythms, ostinati, performance, and so much more.
Unfortunately, one Orff instrument approximately costs the entirety of my annual budget.
You generous donation will help my amazing students learn important musical lessons, especially in an area when so many other schools and children do not have this wonderful and beneficial opportunity. Please help my elementary musicians grow into life-long music-appreciators.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
