My Project
Our band program continues to grow rapidly each year, and about half of the band members play woodwind instruments. These instruments require reeds, which we try to provide as much as possible for the students at no cost. Reeds can cost around $30-$50 a box. They wear down over time, and the occasional accident causes them to chip and break. We are running very low on our school supply of reeds as we prepare for a new school year. The reeds we are requesting will help my students sound their absolute best every day during rehearsal and for every performance.
My students and I are constantly raising money for the many costs associated with a growing band program.
This would take a huge burden off of our shoulders and would allow my students to worry about one less cost. Furthermore, if my students have access to better materials, then they will sound better on their instruments. If they sound better on their instruments, they will have more fun and get more enjoyment out of being part of the band.
More than half of students from low‑income households
