This project is fully funded
My Students
My students are excited to bring their instruments to and from school to practice. In order to allow students to practice their instruments at home, we need new cases and strings to replace old, broken cases to protect the instruments.
Music allows my students to express themselves creatively as individuals and as a team.
In music class, my students explore singing, playing instruments, empowering their own voices. As the music program expands, I would love for all of my students to continue having the necessary materials they need to learn and make music!
My Project
With new viola cases, viola players will be able to safely transport their instrument to and from school. At home, violists will be able to practice their instrument to continue their learning outside the school building. At school, violists will be able to bring their instruments to and from class, and throughout the different parts of their musical day!
Having the cases will help ensure that violas continue to be protected and used for many years and generations of viola players to come!
Violists will be so excited to use their new cases!
