Through your donation you can play a key role in a student’s musical development. ~~

~~ The Gift of Jazz is teaming up with Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge and the Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts (CCJA) to collect and distribute musical instruments and equipment for Denver’s young musicians. ~~ Collectible musical instrument donations such as vintage trumpets, saxophones, guitars, amps, string instruments, or even a Steinway piano actually do more for our music programs than you might imagine. Valuable donated musical instruments will be used in fundraising events to help sustain programs like CCJA and grow jazz education in our region. The revenue generated from a single Steinway piano, for example, can make a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of musicians through the support of music education programs within our community. ~~ A musical instrument donation is an extremely easy way to benefit you, the charitable donor, and to help others in the process. Some musical instruments even appreciate in value depending on their condition, brand, age and rarity. When you donate a musical instrument you will receive the maximum financial benefit allowed by law. This allows you to help young people in need while providing you with a significant tax deduction in addition to the satisfaction of knowing that you have truly helped make a difference in the lives of others. ~~ The gift of music is something that all children should be afforded the opportunity to partake in. Many schools have cut music education from their curriculum because the budget just isn’t there for the needed instruments. Your generous musical instrument donation will help fund new opportunities for our children such as CCJA. Your donation of a musical instrument can open a door for a child and give them the opportunity that they otherwise might never have had. ~~ Donate your musical instruments or vintage pro audio equipment today and help us support The Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts, an educational organization that benefits the entire community. ~~ Your thoughtful donation today will make a positive difference tomorrow! ~~ Donations may be given at Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, 930 Lincoln Street, Denver, CO 80203 or call Donald Rossa 303-921-4559 to arrange for a pick-up. ~~ The Gift of Jazz- David Froman, President, www.giftofjazz.org ~~ The Colorado Conservatory of Jazz Arts, Paul Romaine at 720-201-6885 , http://www.jazzarts.org ~~ Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, Donald Rossa, President, www.dazzlejazz.com ~~.

Through your donation you can play a key role in a student’s musical development. ~~ The Gift of Jazz is teaming up with Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge and the Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts (CCJA) to collect and distribute musical instruments and equipment for Denver’s young musicians. ~~ Collectible musical instrument donations such as vintage trumpets, saxophones, guitars, amps, string instruments, or even a Steinway piano actually do more for our music programs than you might imagine. Valuable donated musical instruments will be used in fundraising events to help sustain programs like CCJA and grow jazz education in our region. The revenue generated from a single Steinway piano, for example, can make a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of musicians through the support of music education programs within our community. ~~ A musical instrument donation is an extremely easy way to benefit you, the charitable donor, and to help others in the process. Some musical instruments even appreciate in value depending on their condition, brand, age and rarity. When you donate a musical instrument you will receive the maximum financial benefit allowed by law. This allows you to help young people in need while providing you with a significant tax deduction in addition to the satisfaction of knowing that you have truly helped make a difference in the lives of others. ~~ The gift of music is something that all children should be afforded the opportunity to partake in. Many schools have cut music education from their curriculum because the budget just isn’t there for the needed instruments. Your generous musical instrument donation will help fund new opportunities for our children such as CCJA. Your donation of a musical instrument can open a door for a child and give them the opportunity that they otherwise might never have had. ~~ Donate your musical instruments or vintage pro audio equipment today and help us support The Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts, an educational organization that benefits the entire community. ~~ Your thoughtful donation today will make a positive difference tomorrow! ~~ Donations may be given at Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, 930 Lincoln Street, Denver, CO 80203 or call Donald Rossa 303-921-4559 to arrange for a pick-up. ~~ The Gift of Jazz- David Froman, President, www.giftofjazz.org ~~ The Colorado Conservatory of Jazz Arts, Paul Romaine at 720-201-6885 , http://www.jazzarts.org ~~ Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, Donald Rossa, President, www.dazzlejazz.com.

Through your donation you can play a key role in a student’s musical development. ~~ The Gift of Jazz is teaming up with Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge and the Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts (CCJA) to collect and distribute musical instruments and equipment for Denver’s young musicians. ~~ Collectible musical instrument donations such as vintage trumpets, saxophones, guitars, amps, string instruments, or even a Steinway piano actually do more for our music programs than you might imagine. Valuable donated musical instruments will be used in fundraising events to help sustain programs like CCJA and grow jazz education in our region. The revenue generated from a single Steinway piano, for example, can make a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of musicians through the support of music education programs within our community. ~~ A musical instrument donation is an extremely easy way to benefit you, the charitable donor, and to help others in the process. Some musical instruments even appreciate in value depending on their condition, brand, age and rarity. When you donate a musical instrument you will receive the maximum financial benefit allowed by law. This allows you to help young people in need while providing you with a significant tax deduction in addition to the satisfaction of knowing that you have truly helped make a difference in the lives of others. ~~ The gift of music is something that all children should be afforded the opportunity to partake in. Many schools have cut music education from their curriculum because the budget just isn’t there for the needed instruments. Your generous musical instrument donation will help fund new opportunities for our children such as CCJA. Your donation of a musical instrument can open a door for a child and give them the opportunity that they otherwise might never have had. ~~ Donate your musical instruments or vintage pro audio equipment today and help us support The Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts, an educational organization that benefits the entire community. ~~ Your thoughtful donation today will make a positive difference tomorrow! ~~ Donations may be given at Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, 930 Lincoln Street, Denver, CO 80203 or call Donald Rossa 303-921-4559 to arrange for a pick-up. ~~ The Gift of Jazz- David Froman, President, www.giftofjazz.org ~~ The Colorado Conservatory of Jazz Arts, Paul Romaine at 720-201-6885 , http://www.jazzarts.org ~~ Dazzle Restaurant and Lounge, Donald Rossa, President, www.dazzlejazz.com.
