Supplies to Brighten Our Lives!

Help me give my students the opportunity to perform their best and preserve their instruments!

FULLY FUNDED! Mr. B.'s classroom raised $347

My Project

These supplies will give my students the opportunity to keep on playing! Every little bit helps! Reeds are the lifeblood of woodwind instruments. Since they are considered consumables, they will always be needed. I am happy to have some very enthusiastic saxophone and clarinet players, and keeping them supplied with reeds keeps them going! We have been gifted some electric guitars, but we have no good way to store them. So the need for proper storage is paramount! The Guitar racks will ensure that our instruments are well cared for and will stay in good repair. Thank you!
