Donate to help 20 Kenmore students learn Taiko Japanese Drumming

You can help 20 Kenmore Middle School students learn Taiko - Japanese ensemble drumming.

Support Kenmore Students’ World of Music

Your donation helps us teach Taiko, a style of ensemble drumming used in both Japanese folk and classical music, to Kenmore students!

Students learn to create different sounds and styles as well as powerful visual movements across a variety of drums. The possibilities are infinite given all the different combinations of movement, sound, style, and positioning.

Students can learn much about cultural traditions and lifestyles through music.

For just $150 per student, your donation will directly impact students for 2 semesters. 100% of your donation goes to fund this effort.

Your donation will help our students:

· Cross cultural boundaries and open their minds to our world of music

· Encourage creative expression

· Develop more self-esteem

· Develop a broader sense of the world

· Broaden their education

· Incorporate what they've learned in the school talent show

Your support will allow 20 of our students to have this experience!
