Needed: Music Stands


Back in college I had the rare privilege of having many music major friends. And while some of those interesting friends graduated to become starving artists (though if you ask for a name, I could not help you), quite a larger number grew up to be starving band teachers. Starving may be an exaggeration, but it will do for my post today.

I want to highlight what one of my friends, Matthew Carnagua, is trying to do for his band class. Due to budget cuts, the school can't afford new music stands to have enough for all of the students, so he's decided to raise money himself for the class. He explains the circumstances much better in his page on DonorChoose.org. Go check it out and help their music class!

Here is a link to Matthew's page on DonorChoose.org...click here to see more information.
