Making A Difference so a Child Can Experience Music!

May 20th, 2010 by Deb Saville

It was a sad day indeed when Mal Hood, a member of Born To Sing, passed away suddenly last year. We collected over $800 for his family.  His widow, Alice, wanted to use the money to keep Mal’s love of music alive somehow…and we all discussed buying an instrument that could be used in perpetuity by a child each year who otherwise would not be able to afford this experience.  Alice is pictured here with Bruce Herriman, Principal of the School of Instrumental Music, Maylands who gratefully received the trombone, played a tune and promised that it would be put to good use by the pupils.
