WE DID IT!!!!
Thanks to your generous donations and spreading the word, we have reached our fundraising goal of $82,000. We now have full funding for our band director position next school year!
You may have also heard from your student that we had a special visit from Seahawk veteran Lofa Tatupu, Seahawks Blue Thunder drumline, Pearl Jam guitarist Mike McCready, and City Council members, Joy Hollingsworth and Dionne Foster, & School Board Rep Vivian Song this past Friday. This effort was spearheaded by Council President Hollingsworth, resulting in a generous donation from the Seahawks, Safeway, and Vitalogy Foundation. Not only did this help us to reach our fundraising goal for next year, but it will also help jumpstart support for the band director position the following year, too.
Thank you all for your generosity and for keeping our music program strong!
