Reeds for Woodwinds - We Want to Play!

Help me give my students new reeds that are necessary for them to play in the band.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Cannata's classroom raised $217

This project is fully funded

My Project

My fourth and fifth grade band students are enthusiastic and eager to learn to play music. Many of my students struggle to purchase the required items we need in band class. I am requesting reeds for my students who play Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, and Tenor Saxophone.

With good quality reeds, these students will be on their way to practicing and performing successfully.

If we do not supply the reeds, my students end up playing with chipped, broken, or overly-worn reeds that fail to make a quality tone and discourage students in their practice.
