Tired of feeling like you're not making a difference? Want to make a positive impact on children's lives right now? You can!
There’s a fantastic youth orchestra in Guatemala that I’m going to visit next month, and they are in need of more musical instruments! I’m holding a FUNDRAISER so that together, we can buy as many used instruments in Guatemala for them as possible.
So far, these used instruments are being held for us to buy there:
Violin: $120
Cello: $900
Viola: $220
Cello: $650
If you'd like to pitch in - no amount is too small or too big - DM ME for my Venmo username or my home address. I'm trying to collect all donations by June 1st.
The name of the orchestra is Orquesta Sinfónica Escuela Tipo Federación Chimaltenango. Here is a link to their December performance, that captured my attention and admiration, on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1E8bdkHw7R/
There is so much cruelty, prejudice, harm, and political toxicity going on in the U.S. and around the world that I feel especially honored and privileged to have a way for us to make a real, meaningful, and positive difference in the lives of these precious, serious, poor (in finances, not in spirit), beautiful, dedicated little musicians.
If you'd like some history of the orchestra or to find out why their nickname is Orquesta de las Verduras, or the Vegetables Orchestra, dm me!
And muchas gracias! Thank you!
