High Schooler Campers at Franklin Field Night with the Penn Band
Our Goal
In the spirit of The Penn Compact - our President Dr. Amy Gutmann's vision for Penn engagement in our local communities and their schools - we are working to bring 'The Penn Band Experience' available at our annual high school summer music camp to the students of Philadelphia.
In collaboration with our partners at Musicopia (www.musicopia.net), we are raising the funds needed to provide this experience to four high school students from Microsoft's High School of the Future in West Philadelphia's Parkside neighborhood. We've already raised enough money to ensure a commuter experience for these students. Our new goal is to raise $2,000 by August 2nd, 2014 so that they may enjoy the full overnight experience.
