MUSIC EQUIPMENT DONATIONS NEEDED!!!!

We are the “Justified Youth Group” Shouting out to all fellow singers and musicians! We are trying to start a band in our youth group, but because of funds, we are unable to afford much more than two microphones, one bent mic stand, and a sound system that resembles some type of home karaoke machine.

If you could help with any type of playable instrument or any amount of money I know about twenty kids, I mean young adults (they hate it when I call them kids) that would have such a better chance of making the right choices in life, thanks to you….. All donations are tax deductible

Thank you and God Bless.
