Help Sofia Get Her Dream Violin

My name is Sofia V and I am an aspiring violinist. I have been playing violin since I was 8 and have enjoyed posting violin covers of pop and classical songs on my YouTube channel since 2020.

I've been wanting to progress even further in my skill and believe I need a high-quality instrument to do so. I currently play on a great violin that we were able to get for just $400. It's an amazing student violin, however it produces a fairly flat sound and lacks the depth, passion and feeling that a high quality instrument can bring out. I believe this violin can limit my skill growth and doesn't allow me reach my full potential. I recently found a violin and it plays just beautifully. It was made in the 1920s by John Juzek so its over 100 years old. Its a very bright and loud instrument which is just what I need to match my style of playing. Its sound fills up an entire room and the power that this instrument has can most definitely take my playing to a new level. I blind tested around 10-15 violins in a violin shop in Princeton, NJ called "Princeton Violins" and eliminated all of them one by one even though some were much more expensive than this one. That's why I believe that this is the right instrument for me. However, it costs $12,000 and for my family it's way over the budget that we can afford for a violin.

If all of you can donate just $1-10, this goal is easily attainable. If you enjoy my covers on my YT channel (Enchanted Violin), the purchase of this instrument can take my videos to an entirely new level. Share this link with your family and friends and make sure to watch my video, explaining the specifics of this violin! Thank you so much for any donations! Any donated money will go directly to buying this violin.
