My Project

My students at RMS are passionate, hardworking young musicians who show up every day eager to make music together. They love expressing themselves through their instruments, collaborating with their peers, and building a community through song. However, to help them succeed and reach their full artistic potential, we need basic classroom equipment to support proper technique and posture.

With sturdy music stands, every student will be able to read their sheet music easily at eye level, improving their posture, breathing, and instrument position.

Proper posture-supporting music chairs will ensure they sit correctly, which is vital for developing breath control and playing technique—especially during long rehearsals. By providing these essential resources, you are directly giving our students the structural foundation they need to focus, grow, and take pride in our music program. Thank you for supporting our young musicians!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
