Howdy!
Long time no write, I know.
Hey -- I just learned about Barry Manilow's music project. He is encouraging everyone to donate their old, no-longer-used instruments to the project -- or just donate some money.
Students in High schools and Jr. High schools (called Middle schools these days) benefit by being able to learn how to play an instrument.
He said that it changed his life when he joined the orchestra at his High School in Brooklyn, New York.
I encourage you to donate however you can!
Music and learning how to play an instrument helps children in so many different ways.
I learned to play the piano when I was young, and it helped me to "zone-out" and "calm-down" after school or after a rough day. I'd go play the piano for an hour or two and come out a whole new teenager.
A happy teenager makes for a happy home. : )
