My Project

Reeds are a very important piece of cane that allows the oboe, bassoon, clarinet, and saxophone to perform. In my district, we do not expect students to buy reeds so that band is an equitable place to be.

I provide all reeds for my students, and with your help, students can pass this financial barrier.

This is something students do not and should not need to stress about.

Having access to the proper equipment will result in better participation from the students because of the equity provided by donors! Thank you for your consideration.

Mr. Hanlon-Alle
Grades 9-12
