Instruments Donation in Elizabeth, New Jersey
Thomas Jefferson Arts Academy is the latest school to receive instruments from the NCMF
School name: Thomas Jefferson Arts Academy
What did we donate: Two Epiphone acoustic guitars (donated by Gibson)
When: 9/21/22
Pictured: Music teacher Dr. Steven Sabet and the students of Thomas Jefferson Arts Academy (part of the Elizabeth TWP, NJ public school district)
We made the connection to the school through previous Elizabeth TWP school district donations.
Fun facts! The are almost 30k students in this district with almost 2,200 teachers in 37 schools. Some of the schools are within walking distance of each other and have a specific academic focus/leaning much like the colleges of a university system.
Also, the teacher has requests from students to take guitars home to practice since most of them do not have a guitar to use at home so these will fit the bill perfectly.
Thank you to Gibson Guitars for their generosity!
