My Project
Our high school marching band is on its way to a dream performance at Universal Studios! This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity allows our talented musicians to showcase their hard work and passion on a national stage. However, we need your help to make our performance truly spectacular.
Our marching band is a group of dedicated, talented, and hardworking students who pour countless hours into perfecting their craft.
These young musicians are not just learning to play instruments—they're learning teamwork, discipline, and the joy of creating something beautiful together. For many of them, this trip to Universal Studios will be the culmination of years of practice and a highlight of their high school careers.
To make our performance truly shine, we need high-quality marching cymbals. Cymbals play a critical role in our percussion section, adding energy, rhythm, and dynamic contrast to our music. Unfortunately, our current cymbals are old and worn, and they won't stand up to the demands of a performance like this.
With your support, we can purchase durable, professional-grade marching cymbals that will not only enhance our performance at Universal Studios but will also benefit future generations of band students.
This trip is more than just a performance; it's an educational experience. Students will have the chance to participate in workshops, learn from professionals, and be inspired by new environments and challenges. New cymbals will ensure they sound their best while representing our school and community with pride.
We are seeking to raise 2 sets of high-quality marching crash cymbals and rim clamps for cymbals to be attached to our snare drums.
Your donation, will make a huge impact. By supporting this project, you’re helping our students achieve their dreams and create memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for believing in our band and investing in our students!
