Marching Mountains' Goal

Marching Mountains' goal is to create a network to supply public school band programs in distressed counties in Appalachia with donated new and used musical instruments.

Donate to Marching Mountains

We need band instruments! Easily donate your used musical instruments!

Each instrument we receive costs $25 on average to be picked up and shipped to a band program in Appalachia that needs it. You can donate money to the project on the donation page.

Annual Report and Needs Assessment

A year-long analysis of survey results from band directors in distressed regions of Appalachia is now available to the public. In addition to a shortage of musical instruments and supplies, children in the region have other barriers preventing them from participating in band. Read the needs assessment here.
