My Project

We have a wonderful set of ukuleles for use in our music classroom, but we need supplies to help us keep our groups playing and sounding good! At this time we have 5 tuners for an entire class. We also need ukulele felt picks and new strings for our ukuleles.

Please help us to keep playing and stay in tune!

We need new felt picks to replace the ones we have worn out, new strings to replace broken ones so we can keep using the instruments and more tuners for use in our ukulele class activities and our ukulele club!

Our students love playing the instruments, but we need supplies to help us keep the instruments in good playing condition. We would also like to have a supply of felt picks for students to use in the classroom. These supplies wear out and need to be replaced.
