Congratulations to Kayla! She is the recipient of the latest instrument give away and here is why: Kayla spent years taking violin lessons all the way to the point of reaching First Chair position by her Senior year of High School. At the end of the school year, a
student broke her Violin leaving it in an unfixable state. Her family was unable to afford replacing her violin so Kayla thought she would have to leave her musical dreams behind. With our donated instrument, Kayla is now able to pick up where she left off and make her dreams come true.
