My Project

Last year, we launched our brand-new elementary Handbell Club and it has quickly become one of our students' favorite musical experiences. As the program grows, we need essential supplies to help our young musicians succeed.

This project will provide handbell storage, performance gloves, table coverings, and new music for our elementary handbell club.

These resources will protect our instruments and create a safe performance space.

Handbell choir builds much more than musical skills. Students develop teamwork, responsibility, focus, confidence, and listening skills as they work together to create one beautiful sound.

Your support will help establish a strong foundation for our growing handbell program, benefiting hundreds of students for years to come while inspiring a lifelong love of music.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
