and he's my son, so let me be proud for a minute, okay?
My 11 year old was sitting in his 6th grade orchestra class when his teacher's violin fell and broke. She was in tears. She was living on a new teacher's salary, and the violin that broke was given to her by her deceased father.
He came home, built a website, and started a fundraiser to help fix the violin. In just 4 days he raised enough money to fix it. In the process, of raising the money and interacting with the school, he learned there are kids who can't afford to participate in orchestra or band because they can't pay the instrument rental. He learned that there are even whole schools that can't afford music programs.
