Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Our school's band program provides students with invaluable opportunities for creative expression and personal growth. Just like our cars need regular maintenance to ensure smooth operation, musical instruments require consistent care to produce the beautiful melodies that enrich our lives. The majority of our musicians are using school owned instruments for a significantly reduced price. We struggle to keep up with the necessary repairs and maintenance.

With your support, we can ensure that our instruments remain in optimal condition, providing students with the tools they need to succeed in their musical journey.

Your donation will directly fund ongoing repairs, instrument maintenance, and replacement parts, guaranteeing that every student has access to fully functioning musical instruments.

Grades 6-8
