Donate to NHS Bands!
The Niwot High School band program relies on the support of our community and our families. To sustain the level of success that the band program has achieved over the years, we need steady funding for instruments, instrument repairs, and sheet music. School funding and course fees only covers a small fraction of these costs.
A portion of donations will go toward replacing our aging instruments — many of which are 10 to 20 years past their life expectancy — and, after several repairs, do not play very well anymore.
We need your HELP to support our students!
Please consider making a tax-deductible donation of ANY size to the Niwot Bands. Together, we will ensure that current/future students will have many years of memorable performances with high-quality school-owned instruments.
