While the purpose of this fundraiser is to purchase a MacBook, I really want everyone to understand why my work is so important to me. I believe that music therapy is a very powerful way to bring out the creative spirit in my students, and to help them grow. They have so much to offer, and if you really take the time to get to know them, you’ll be amazed. As their “teacher,” I still have a lot to learn from them. They are so accepting of others, and most of them are free of the social barrier we all seem to carry around that says “I can’t be who I really am, because someone will look down on me.” They simply say, “this is who I am!” This freedom is inspiring.

That said, one of the best things you can do to help is to come observe me at my work and/or volunteer. Let me know if you’re interested in doing this!
