CORRECTION: Music4Life has provided 24 instruments to Shoreline Schools this year
Thursday, May 18, 2017
Correction: In the original publication of this story, the headline said that eight instruments had been donated this year. Actually, 24 instruments have been donated in 2017, including the recent delivery of eight. Information in the story was correct.
David Endicott, Co-Founder and President/COO of Music4Life™reports that during the months of February, March and April, Music4Life™ delivered eight ready-to-play musical instruments to Shoreline Public Schools.
They included two violins, one double French horn, two keyboards (normally used to support choral groups), two electric guitars and one drum set.
Also delivered were four clarinet cases, three clarinet mouthpieces and four trumpet mouthpieces requested by the school district, which were counted for value but not counted as “musical instruments.”
This brings the total number of instruments delivered to Shoreline Public Schools since September 1, 2016 to 24, including an alto sax; a cello; three clarinets; four flutes; a trombone; three trumpets; two violins; two electric guitars with amplifiers; two double French horns; three keyboards and a drum set, all valued at $12,240.
Music4Life™collects donated musical instruments, has them refurbished, and donates them to school districts so kids whose families can't afford instruments can have the opportunity to participate in music programs.
They accept financial donations to help defray the cost of refurbishing instruments.
They have volunteer groups that work with six different school districts, including Shoreline.
To donate, see the webpage.
