Dear Friend of Roma Rock School,
we deeply appreciate your support for free music education of Roma children in Skopje, North Macedonia!
Thanks to your donation, we managed to continue with free music classes till December 2021. Our goal include creating opportunities for our students to work outside Šuto Orizari and to connect with young musicians outside their own community. We also menaged to open a branch in the town of Kriva Palanka, 100km from Skopje near the Bulgarian-North Macedonian border.
In the period from August to December 2021, classes were held for more than 30 students. As a result, two compositions were recorded in a professional studio. The students used music instruments that were procured thanks to your donations.
We offer nine different classes: drums, guitar, bass guitar, piano, vocals, woodwind instruments, violin, theory of music, and solfège. Additionally, we have bands that rehearse regularly and perform at concerts.
How your funds are used:
- each student has free lessons twice a week for his instrument
- investing in instruments inventory and equipment for rehersals
- audio recording of songs in studio
- video recording
- providing free transportation for students from Shuto Orizari to the city centar and back
- organizing workshops
- organizing concerts
- investing in the school conditions
- upgrade recording equipment and software at the Roma Rock School
- organizing promotional events to promote the bands...
Unfortunately, at the moment we can not continue our activities due to lack of funds.
Please share this project with your contacts and invite them to consider supporting this ongoing project.
We are deeply grateful for your support,
RRS Team
