Help me give my students new pianos for their music class. We are currently learning several scales and four songs, but our pianos are slowly giving out. Thank you for considering our Harlem students!

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
Our school is located in Harlem and has over 450 students that range from 3rd grade-8th grade. As their music teacher, I would love to provide them a quality music education, but do not have funds to purchase any musical instruments, storage lockers, and music accessories; reeds, mouthpieces, stands, etc. With this project, I'll be able to purchase those items and build our first wind ensemble! Isn't that exciting?! I can't wait! My goal is to create a strong music program for our students to equip them with the knowledge and skills to further their music talents. With a strong music program, our students will be able to apply to music high schools and eventually into strong music conservatories throughout the nation. Thank you for considering our students in Harlem!
My Project
Our students in Harlem have such an incredible music talent! As a new music teacher in Harlem, I want to share my knowledge and passion for music, but we require several instruments and supplies to help build our music program. Some of these items include: piano/keyboards, keyboard stands, headphones, extension chords, power-strips, woodwind instruments, brass instruments, and much more! Eventually, I would like to build a band program, which will include flutes, clarinets, saxophones, trumpets, trombones, tuba and percussion equipment. I know that with their talent, we will achieve our goal! So far, we have learned several scales, four songs, and want to continue growing our piano playing skills. I am hoping that with our new music instruments, our Harlem students will be able to express their music talents and creativity.
