Our Team
We are all volunteers, hoping to make the lives of children better through music.
Our Mission
The mission of Fanfare Instruments for Students is to provide underprivileged students with band and orchestra instruments at no charge to the family. We intend to form a solid support system for each student by attending their concerts and acknowledging life events such as birthdays and graduations. As musicians, we understand the importance of support when it comes to studying music and learning an instrument.
Success Stories
A New Violin
This little gal was our first recipient of a beautifully restored 3/4 size violin by Simon McHugh, of McHugh Violin Shop, Wichita, KS. As she opened the case, she exclaimed ,”It’s beautiful!”
Simon McHugh
All of our stringed instruments come from the violin shop of Simon McHugh. It is because of their skills and generosity that Fanfare Instruments will be able to offer to students, quality stringed instruments. We are so happy and proud to have Simon, and his young luthier, Seth to be on board as our partners.
We Did it Again!
This classy, young lady received a full-size violin, refurbished by McHugh Violin Shop here in Wichita. It’s the second violin that we have had the privilege to donate to a deserving, young student. She also stated,”It’s beautiful!” She was all smiles along-side orchestra teacher.
