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:

  • Providing reliable refurbished instruments to school music programs and offering maintenance and repair services

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

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

  • Preparing 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 the required maintenance and repair. Cleanings and repairs are performed by qualified volunteers and made ready for school donation. All instruments are thoroughly inspected before being donated.

We will provide annual cleaning and maintenance on donated instruments at the school's request 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 or plastic brass instruments
