Support Trinity's summer studies!

Hi! My name is Trinity Goff, and I am a classical pianist from Salem, Oregon. I currently study at Willamette University under Jean-David Coen. This summer, I was invited to two music festivals - the John Perry Academy in Princeton, New Jersey and MusicFest Perugia in Perugia, Italy - and I am raising funds to help with the cost of tuition and plane tickets. Any donation helps, thank you so much for your support!!
