Fire Destroys Mariella's Violin

Donation protected
My name is Mariella Haubs, I'm a violinist and I tragically lost my violin in this house fire a few weeks ago.


This was the instrument that I had lived and breathed with since childhood. I had a very personal connection to it.

After the initial shock, I am now in the process of purchasing a new violin. My insurance is reimbursing me for the initial value of the violin that I lost, but prices for string instruments are always rising, so in order to get an adequate instrument, I need additional funding beyond my insurance money. This is why I need your help!

Any amount you can donate is helpful; no gift is too small. If you wish to help, but cannot do so financially, please consider sharing my link with your friends and family. Thank you so much for your time and care!

If you would like more information about me, please read my bio below!
