Program Outline:
Due to the current economic crisis schools are being forced to close music programs because of a lack of proper funding. SMART has developed a unique musical instrument program that provides sustained, reoccurring income for school music programs. The program is simple, and turns a need students have for musical instruments into an opportunity to generate funding for their own music programs.

*An average sized school district can generate as much as $140,000 per year for their music programs!

Donor Opportunities:
There are two ways donors can participate in this unique program:

1. Provide Funding to purchase instruments
   Every $20,000 donated will provide:
        100 NEW instruments
        $9000 annual income for music programs
        100 students served
             *With a 15 year life span on these instruments, 1500 students will be served while providing
              $135,000 for their music programs!
2. GIFT Program (Granting Instruments, Fulfilling Talent)
   Through GIFT SMART provides instruments to underprivileged students at reduced rates. Charges are based on individual need (Note: at SMART we believe that commitment comes through responsibility… no matter how small.)
   Every $5,000 donation to the GIFT Program will provide instruments for 25 students in need each year or 375 students over the 15 year life span of the instruments.
