Bringing Music to Life (BMTL) donates refurbished instruments to Colorado schools, helping students access music programs. After eight years of entering BMTL’s tuba drawing, Melanie Hawthorne Long of Horizon Middle School finally won a tuba for her students. Meanwhile, Rachel Davis at Kunsmiller Creative Arts Academy received 49 instruments to strengthen her modern band program, planning to return old or broken instruments to BMTL for repair and redistribution. Since its founding, BMTL has repaired and donated over 9,000 instruments, benefiting more than 20,000 students statewide.
