Musical Instruments for Children, Inc.

Chapel Hill NC

Description

I have started a local nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization in North Carolina. The name of the organization is "Musical Instruments for Children, Inc.". I am collecting used and new musical instruments from people in the community and then giving the musical instruments to school systems and other organizations. These organizations will then give them away to children whose parents cannot afford to buy them one. These children would like to play in a band or orchestra such as at their school. Also, if I find a child that qualifies as low income and who would like to play in a band or orchestra such as at their school, I will give this child an instrument. I am also looking for money donations with which to repair the musical instruments that I collect. The donations I collect are tax deductible as the agency has 501(c)(3) status with the Internal Revenue Service. Many families have had children who played in their school's band or/and orchestra but the children did not want to pursue music after graduating from high school, for example. As a result their instruments are just hanging around the house collecting dust. If these instruments are donated to this agency they will be put to good use again and make a child very, very happy. I am looking for donations of violins, cellos, flutes, clarinets, trumpets, trombones, saxophones, French horns, tubas, oboes, and all other kinds of instruments. I am a School Counselor and Attorney. I have a Master in Education and a Juris Doctor. My contact info is: telephone: . Please get in touch with me if you would like to donate!
