As part of Project MUSIC, LEAP is also supporting refugee youth by collecting donated instruments. If you know of any individual or organizations that would like to donate any musical instruments, please contact frank@leap-program.org. These organizations may include music studios, schools or music departments in universities, churches, and local or city orchestras. Some preferred instruments include saxophone, trumpet, clarinet, violin, viola, guitar, oud, and flute.
Most likely instruments will be transported by hand with our SHINE and MUSIC volunteers. Since larger instruments are more difficult to transport to the refugee camps and may entail shipping, please contact us prior to making a commitment to accept them from the donor(s).
Used instruments must be in fairly decent shape. Minor scuffs and scrapes are fine. Stringed instruments with missing strings or strings that can be replaced are acceptable given that the frame of the instrument is in good shape. Please use your best judgment.
