Help me give my students the ability to learn about the world through rhythms and percussion instruments.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Wilson's classroom raised $3,040
This project is fully funded
My Students
Our school is a diverse population of hardworking and earnest students. They show up each day hungry to learn about music. Thirty percent of our students require school instruments to participate. Funding of this project will help close the gap between those who have an instrument and those who do not.
My Project
Students will use these instruments to learn about other cultures, geography, and history. These instruments will be used to practice music both at home and in school. There are enough instruments to ensure that every student has one without having to purchase anything with their own money. We will study the rhythms used in everyday life as well as ceremonies and celebrations from around the world. We will also use them to give performances designed to educate and entertain the community. This project will enable my students to see the world one rhythm at a time!
More than half of students from low‑income households
