My students need a Valentine instrument repair kit that can be used to make minor, quick fixes to their instruments when needed.

My Students
My students are all over the place! I mean that in the best way, too. I love to see them learn more about music. They all want to grow in their knowledge of different instruments. They love learning in so many different ways and I want to be able to provide for them various routes to learning music theory and music notation and music performance.
All of my band students work very hard and deserve the best, and that is all I want to be able to do for them.
My Project
Many times when teaching students how to play musical instruments there are instances where an instrument needs a minor repair. There are certain repairs that I know how to make, but without the correct tools and supplies, I am unable to make them in class.
Without repair materials and tools, instruments end up having to be sent away for repair, which can take between 2 to 3 weeks to be returned to the student.
When this happens, the student either has to play on a loaner instrument or they do not have anything to play on at all. When they do not have an instrument, they miss out on valuable learning taking place in rehearsal.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
