SERVING PEORIA-AREA
SCHOOL MUSIC PROGRAMS

WHAT WE DO

We put reliable instruments in the hands of students in need who desire to make music.

The Peoria Instrument Project is here to help school music teachers in the Tri-County area by building programs that will:

  • Provide reliable refurbished instruments to school music programs and offer maintenance and repair services

  • Offer listening opportunities to introduce many different genres performed by musicians at all levels

  • Support teachers with access to resources and supplies needed for program growth, such as stands, storage, music, etc.

  • Prepare workshops for educators to improve their skills and help them become better educators

Donate instruments for school music programs

Upon receiving a donation, we inspect the instrument to identify required maintenance and repair. Most cleaning and repairs are performed by qualified volunteers and made ready for school donation.

We will perform annual cleaning and maintenance to donated instruments so they can be enjoyed for years to come!

We accept:

  • Woodwinds

  • Brass and mutes

  • Strings

  • Percussion

  • General music instruments (recorders, boomwhackers, etc.)

  • Music stands, cases, beginner methods books

  • Gently used marching shoes

  • Mouthpieces

  • Cases

  • Bows and rosin

  • Instruments beyond repair (for parts)

Exceptions:

  • Pianos

  • Instruments not common in school bands or orchestras

  • Brightly colored instruments
