My name is Elijah, and I’m a 14-year-old trombonist with an incredible opportunity ahead of me. I’ve been selected as a finalist in an international trombone competition and have been invited to perform in the finals at the International Trombone Festival in Ontario, Canada, this July!

I’ve worked tirelessly to hone my skills on the trombone, dedicating countless hours to practice and performance to be the best I can be. This competition is not just a chance to showcase my abilities on an international stage but also an opportunity to meet and learn from the trombone masters I admire and aspire to emulate.

This once-in-a-lifetime experience, however, comes with significant expenses, including airfare and accommodation. That’s where I humbly ask for your support.

Your generosity will help me make this dream a reality. Every contribution brings me closer to representing my community, pursuing my passion, and gaining invaluable experiences that will shape my musical journey.

Thank you so much for considering supporting me in this exciting chapter. Your kindness and encouragement mean the world to me!

With gratitude,

Elijah
