The Band of Angels is a partnership between FOX 4 and Meyer Music. The goal is to collect music instruments and to help fund the purchase of musical instruments for use by children in need who want to study music. In many cases, a child’s family does not have the funds to obtain an instrument.

•Donate your musical instruments at any of the three Meyer Music locations.
• Tax-deductible monetary donations — viewers can donate securely through credit card via the Greater Kansas City Community Foundation on fox4kc.com/bandofangels. Or mail check payable to: Greater Kansas City Community Foundation (Band of Angels on memo line) 1055 Broadway Suite 130 Kansas City, Mo. 64105-1595
Instruments needed: Flute, Clarinet, Trumpet, Trombone, French Horn, Saxophone, Drums, Xylophone, Violin, Viola, Cello, String Bass, Oboe, Bassoon, Tuba, Guitar. (NO PIANOS, ORGANS OR KEYBOARDS WILL BE ACCEPTED)
The donated instruments will be cleaned, repaired and stored at Meyer Music. Area band directors and school district administrators will send qualified requests to the Band of Angels for instrument fulfillment.
