My Project
Our school is a Title I school, home to talented and hardworking students who often face significant challenges beyond the classroom. Despite these obstacles, our students have shown incredible passion and potential for music. With limited resources, they have learned to play the recorder and even performed at the prestigious Kennedy Center, an achievement that filled them with pride and inspired them to dream bigger. Music has become a transformative force in their lives, offering them joy, confidence, and a sense of accomplishment.
To continue nurturing their musical journey, we need your support.
We hope to provide our students with music stands, allowing them to play their recorders with proper posture and focus, enhancing their skills and performance. These tools will ensure that every child feels empowered to practice and perform to their fullest potential. In the class, my students will be learning about how to read, play, and evaluate music through the recorder that I requested.
With your help, we can create an environment where music enriches not only their education but their lives, instilling in them a sense of purpose and possibility.
More than half of students from low‑income households
