What’s small, mighty, and sounds like a sparkly whistle from a magical forest? A piccolo! Our band is ready to hit the high notes—literally—but we’re missing the one instrument that can soar above the rest.
With your help, we can bring home a piccolo that will add brilliance, excitement, and a sprinkle of musical pixie dust to our ensemble.
This little powerhouse helps students learn precision, breath control, and how to make a BIG impact with a small instrument.
Plus, let’s be honest—every band needs that one student who can pierce the heavens with a high B-flat.
Help us give one lucky student the chance to shine and squeak their way to greatness. We promise to play it responsibly… mostly.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
