Friends of Garfield Music - Tuba Appeal
Friends of Garfield Music is raising funds for two, new Yamaha tubas, and we need your help!

We’ve squeezed the last possible note out of our tired, taped-together Tubas. New ones are needed. This year. This season. Right NOW

Student Tuba players are standing by, with nothing to play. We want to put new, quality instruments into the hands of Garfield musicians as soon as possible.




It’s a TWO-ALARM, TUBA-MERGENCY
   


Your gift is instrumental. 

Garfield’s award-winning music programs provide life-changing experience for young musicians from all backgrounds. 

Because Seattle Public Schools is not able to provide us with instruments, we rely on the generosity of our parents, alumni, and school community to keep the music coming.


It’s a BIG ask… because Tubas are big instruments.

We need to raise $8500 for each Tuba - $17,000 total - on short notice. 

The good news? Most other instruments are less expensive. Moving forward, there is time to plan ahead and upgrade our inventory gradually - year after year, a bit at a time.  


NAME THAT TUBA! 

Are you willing to step up or team up to donate an entire Tuba? By golly, we’ll let you name that beauty, and inscribe it with the inspirational note of your choice. Your place in music history is hereby assured.


Class of 2025


We invite friends and families of current Garfield seniors to contribute towards a Tuba to be inscribed as your class gift - in memory of time spent playing with Garfield Music, and as your legacy to future student musicians. 


Every amount counts!
 


Help us start a tradition of class giving to keep Garfield’s stock of quality instruments up to date.
