Volunteer In Your School's Music Program!!

Young Musicians Could Use Your Help

If you have musical knowledge and a willingness to share that knowledge with young musicians, please contact your schools and make yourself available to volunteer in the music program.

The more individual attention young musicians get, the quicker they can learn and the more they enjoy studying music.  Please consider being a helper for a school music teacher, and an inspiration to music students.
