Students who were once hesitant to step into leadership roles have found confidence behind the camera, creating graphics, or designing materials that help bring our campus to life.

It was so helpful to add two guitars and a guitar amp to our class. We have a group of students that is learning punk music and use guitar and amp. They also use the glass slide when playing guitar, which is such a cool effect. \r\n\r\nBecause of all the guitars we were able to buy, we also needed a new guitar rack to keep them accessible and safe, so thank you for that, too. \r\n\r\nThank you for all the equipment we were able to buy because of your donation.
