Give 270 recently donated $29,000 to Hardin County Schools, designated toward the school district’s Orchestra Program.
The Hardin County Schools Orchestra Program provides middle and high school students throughout the district with opportunities to learn and perform on orchestral string instruments, including the violin, viola, cello and bass. As the program continues to grow, pilot opportunities will also be introduced for select elementary students.
The donation will help purchase instruments that will remain at participating schools, expanding access to music education for students across the district. The donation was made possible through Crescendo for a Cause, a bespoke event organized by Give 270.
Through Crescendo for a Cause, local businesses, organizations and individuals were invited to sponsor a custom-embellished violin canvas with a $2,500 donation. Each die-cut canvas was carefully crafted by students at the HCS Early College and Career Center (EC3) and uniquely painted and embellished by a Hardin County Schools student or faculty/staff artist. The fundraiser culminated in a gallery exhibit last month celebrating the orchestra program, the participating artists and the sponsors whose contributions made the initiative possible.
The initiative is a wonderful example of what can happen when a community comes together around a shared purpose, and we are proud to support Hardin County Schools and help ensure more students have the opportunity to discover and develop their musical talents.
