WAYS TO GIVE
Drive held to collect musical instruments
Local nonprofit Music4Life is collecting new and used instruments for students in the Everett School District.
The group hosts a donation drive the first Friday of each month and will be at the Everett Public Schools Community Resource Center on Friday from 10 a.m. to noon.
Old instruments in garages and attics should be put “back into play so a new generation of students can benefit from them,” Superintendent Ian Saltzman said in November.
Cash donations are also accepted to help pay for instrument repair costs.
