More Instruments = More Musical Opportunities for Students

Help me give my students more opportunities to play exciting instruments by giving them an additional metallophone which will double the number of students who will be able to play!

My Project

The majority of my students come from families that are unable to provide them with musical opportunities and inspiration. I love my job because I get to show them instruments that they otherwise would never get to play.

However, with not enough instruments for every student, I struggle with having time for every student to play during every class.

Right now, I only have one metallophone, one cabasa, and one vibraslap, which means only one student can play that instrument at a time. A second one would provide double the opportunities for students to participate in music-making and learning!
