By donating good, clean, sellable clothing, fashion accessories, jewelry, shoes, handbags, and linens, you will help raise education dollars that will be used for all Music students in grades 7-12. Your donations are tax- deductible. Our goal is to raise $5,000 to support:
- Curriculum enhancements by supporting and funding Music Workshops, Outreach Concerts and Master classes where professional musicians collaborate with our students. This year Cardamon Quartet and the A Cappella group Overboard will be working with our students in workshops and master classes.
- Supporting student participation in district and state level music festivals
- Transportation of students to events
- Funding outreach concerts such as the University of Maine Singers, New England Brass Band and Overboard (a cappella group)
- Financial awards for students to be used to further their education, love and talent of music - In 2014, MMPA raised $15,000 and recognized 15 students with gift awards in grades 7-12.
