Toot Your Horn!

Many of our donors and volunteers, at some point in their lives, had the very rich opportunity and experience to play a musical instrument.  It takes a good deal of practice, time and patience to be adept at playing an instrument.

There are many children out there, who we work with, who long for just such an experience!  There's just one problem, they don't have the funds or access to the trumpet, trombone, drums, clarinet, flute or saxophone!

That's where Schools Count Corp comes in.  We have already helped establish a band program at Chalmers Elementary and now we are assisting King Elementary in Chicago.  We are buying some instruments but I'd like to reach out to you to ask you to consider donating an instrument that may be in your possession which you no longer use.  

I can assure you that your donated instrument will not collect dust!  It will be put to good use right away!  There are children at King who want to be in the band program but can't join because there are simply not enough instruments to go around.  Well, we can help them do something about it.

Simply contact me by calling 630-863-6035 or email me at rich219@comcast.net and we can chat about the opportunity to help the kids.  I can write you a charitable tax receipt for the current market value of the instrument and would be pleased to provide it to you.  Thanks for your consideration. 

Though parting with the instrument may be difficult, it will also allow a deserving, perhaps even aspiring, musician the chance to do something they have always longed to do...to play.

Thank you,
Dick
