Jack was excited to join his school band, playing the trumpet his late father had once played—a cherished gift passed down after his father's passing last year. Tragically, Jack's school was destroyed in the recent Los Angeles fires and with it, his beloved trumpet was lost.

Tsé Bit’a’í Middle School, located on the Navajo Nation, is proudly representing New Mexico in our Adopt A School campaign. Over the past decade, the Warrior Band has flourished, with more students eager to join. But to keep pace with this growing enthusiasm, they need more instruments.
