NCE School Counselor Rhoda Habedank is seeking used and unwanted guitars to help give students a chance to learn how to play the guitar. Rhoda has always had a guitar in her office and believes music is a great way for kids to connect with their emotions and feel comfortable expressing them. She has handfuls of kids that come into her office everyday because they get a chance to learn for free. Rhoda's goal is for every kid that wants one to have a guitar lesson before they graduate. However she needs more guitars so that the kids have something they can borrow to practice on in their own time. She is seeking used, and unwanted guitars that people have laying around. She will pay up to $25, but would like people to donate and is promising they will get put to good use. If you would like to offer her a guitar or would like more information, contact Rhoda at the NCE High School at 218-584-5151.
Here's an audio clip of one of Rhoda's songs that she wrote.
