I am an assistant principal at a middle school within Los Angeles County.
Last year, one of our teachers started an informal music club where kids would jam on guitars, sing, etc. Through donations the teacher has three acoustic guitars, twe electric guitars, an electric keyboard, an amp, and a few mics.
Kids come in at lunch, before school, and during after-school to jam and play.
If anyone on the board has old musical equipment, especially percussion, they would like to donate - let me know.
Once again this is a grass roots movement to supports students musical interests in a fiscal and political enviornment which has pushed music in schools to the fringes of the educational landscape.
I would be willing to pay for any shipping, if you have something to provide.
