“We couldn’t afford to rent an instrument, and I didn’t want my child to miss out. WVYMF made it possible for him to be part of something—and now he’s the one reminding us when it’s time to practice.”
Maria Thompson, Parent
“They get more incentive to practice. They get better sound out of the instruments. And they get to own it. Equipment matters.”
Joseph Jedju, Harrison County Music Teacher
“I didn’t think I’d get to be in band because we couldn’t get an instrument. When they gave me one, I felt like I actually belonged there.”
Jaylen R, Student
