...Inspire a life!
The Morris Central School Music Department is currently looking to increase the musical instrument "library" for their students. The library would serve students who would like to participate in band but may not be able to afford a new instrument.
We are requesting donations of gently used band instruments in good working order.
Your gift may be tax deductible!
If you are interested in participating or have
questions regarding the program, please contact:
Deanna Perkosky at dperkosky@morriscsd.org
