A representative of the Rotary Club presented Missoula County Public Schools with an $8,520 donation to support student music opportunities.
The presenter described the gift as proceeds from the third annual Intune Missoula event held in April; the program raises funds for instruments and scholarships to send elementary and middle-school students to music camps and choir events who otherwise could not afford to attend. The speaker shared a personal account of receiving a loaned mellophone as a child and said the Rotary Club plans to continue the scholarship program.
