Help! We Can't See Our Music!

Help me give my students more Manhasset Music Stands. Our band program is growing, and we have run out of stands for the students. Please helps us provide stands, so they can see their music.

My Project

I took over as Band Director five years ago. When I arrived at our school there were only 6 instrumentalists. This coming school year, we will have over 50 instrumentalist in the band program. We have grown each year and the projections have us over 100 students in the program in the next two years. Our school is a Title 1 school, where our student body is 100% free and reduced lunch.

With the growth of our program, we are currently using every music stand we own, and even having to let some students share three to one stand, which is not the best for learning or posture.

With this project, we are hoping to add 25 more music stands to our inventory. This would allow each student to have their own stand.
