Number of expected 50 attendance for your event Brief Description of Through this Sponsorship program, we plan to introduce a Latin Percussion Project Workshop for youth. We'll expand the program, to be a Percussion Club to underserved communities in the city after the workshop. We serve a diverse student demographic in Orange County who, without these program, would never be able to experience music education. With the 15,000 dollar grant we would be able to buy percussion instruments to facilitate the program.
