Every child deserves a quality music education, and these mouthpieces would help kids who want to participate in band, but can not afford to. The students already treat their low-quality, school-owned instruments with great respect. If the students had access to these materials, they would have an easier time finding success on their instruments. It is heartbreaking to see kids so eager to learn an instrument but unable to participate. My students deserve to participate because they are so passionate about music. If they get these materials, they will be set up for success for the rest of the school year, and hopefully, the rest of their lives. Thank you.
