Musical Instruments for Band

Help me give my students quality instruments so perform on this school year.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Fiery's classroom raised $1,406

My Project

I am requesting a new cymbal and a new baritone instrument for band. My students work very hard each day and they deserve to have quality instruments to perform on all the time! Our brass instruments are falling apart and beyond the point of repair. And we only have one cymbal but many players. With the purchase of these new instruments, the band will be able to continue performing wonderful music!

My students look forward to band everyday, and I want to ensure that they are proud of what they do everyday.

Working instruments are a must! We are preparing for our first concert of the year and having new instruments will make this concert a success. We take pride in what we do and we need quality instruments to support our efforts!
