Dedham Savings Community Foundation Supports Project Step

The Dedham Savings Community Foundation has donated to Project STEP, (String Training Education Program) to provide funding for the purchase of instrument supplies for students. While Project STEP has a solid collection of violins, violas, cellos, and double basses, instrument bows wear out much more quickly than the instruments. The grant from Dedham Savings will help STEP purchase new bows, enabling students to make greater progress on their instruments and gain musical skills so they can reach their fullest potential with their instruments.  

ABOUT PROJECT STEP

Since 1982, Project STEP (String Training Education Program) has provided talented young musicians that identify with historically underrepresented groups in classical music with comprehensive music instruction. Project STEP’s mission is to identify musically talented underrepresented students from Boston and surrounding communities, providing them with comprehensive music and string instrument instruction.
