BDS is completely not-for-profit. It is a page where band directors can share information with other band directors. It is also a site where we can share by donating to worthy causes.

If the free materials on this site have been beneficial to you, please consider making a donation to help develop and maintain a school band program supporting over 70 children in the IMI (Impact Ministries International) City of Refuge orphanage in El Motatal Comayagua, Honduras.

I am excited to say that, with the funds we have gathered so far, we raised enough money to hire a full time band instructor during the 2019-2020, and 2020-2021 school years! Continued funds are needed to maintain that position, as well as to purchase instructional materials (sheet music, method books), and music stands, as well as for instrument repairs and supplies.

You can help by making a one time or recurring online donation to the fund, or even by volunteering to be a part of a mission trip to the orphanage to help provide private instruction.

Make your donation online by clicking on THIS link. On the drop down menu, be sure to click “Honduras Band Teacher Fund” and select the “credit/debit card” option.
