💌 From one of our students, Alanah:
"Dear DSM, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to have music lessons. When my mom was sick in the hospital, she had to retire. Due to your kindness, I now have voice and piano lessons — something I always wanted. I can sing and learn piano because of you!” 🎶
Alanah’s words capture exactly what your generosity makes possible. Every dollar helps another student discover confidence, joy, and healing through music. 💛

Meet Janice, a DSM student who takes voice and piano lessons through the support of our donors and scholarship fund. She loved singing ‘Moana’ at her recital — and we loved watching her shine! 🌟
Thank you to every donor, board member, and community supporter who helps make music education possible for students like Janice. 🎶
