The next step to take is to raise the funds for my idea. I made this permission slip to set up donations outside of a store. I'll do it by myself (with supervision), or with my friends who are in drum line. I plan on asking companies around town like Lulu's or the video store if they could put donation jars at the counter when people check out. I would collect the money every two-three weeks to see how much donations I collected.
My goal is to raise money for our great drumline at Morton Junior High. The drums are old, falling apart, and uncomfortable. To get new drums would help the sound and would be relaxing for the percussionist to wear. We need five bass, five tenor, and three snare drums. All this would cost $11,ooo. Why should you donate? The drums in a band are one of the first things you hear. First impressions are very important in competition. Also, if the junior high school students practice on good quality drums, then they could only get better!
