Musical Instruments needed for New Orleans Students

Musical Instruments for New Orleans Students
Note From Marcia Ball

Dear Friends,

The school across the street from Charmaine Neville's house in New Orleans has finally re-opened. They need musical instruments. If you have or know someone who has an unused band instrument in good repair, please contact me at this email address.

Also, if you could forward this to your lists and spread the word, I'd appreciate it. You never can tell who played flute in high school and still has one under the bed. We'll pick them up or they can be dropped off at my office. We are going to New Orleans in December and will take whatever we gather then.

If an instrument is located in another area, NOLA Relief may be able to help with shipping and the instrument could be sent directly to Charmaine. Donations of money would also be appreciated and then we could send our pawnshop crew out to work their magic.

The need, like the beat, goes on. If we were buried under a mountain of instruments, we could place them all over the Gulf Coast. NOLA Relief is still sending money to New Orleans musicians through your generous contributions. Thank you so much.
