Help Chibia Purchase a New Violin

Hi, my name is Gifty and I am fundraising for my sister Chibia! She is a creative and multi-talented musician who teaches orchestra to various age groups in the Evergreen School District in Vancouver Washington. She performs at various locations with her band and performs and records with other musicians in the Portland Metro Area.

Recently, her violin was damaged beyond repair which has made performing and recording difficult. She is currently borrowing an instrument in the meantime until she can get it replaced which unfortunately is not a sustainable long-term solution. The purchase of a quality violin is already a significant financial burden, but even more so with inflation. Unfortunately, she is not financially capable of replacing her violin on her own at this time. We are seeking assistance in fundraising money to purchase a new violin for her so she can continue performing and recording with ease.

All funds donated will be used to purchase a personalized, hand-crafted violin from luthier Caitlyn Pugh as well as any associated accessories.
