The Summit FM is making music possible for Struthers with the station's latest donation, which brings their total contributions to nearly 75 musical instruments for local middle and high school students.

Summit FM General Manager Tommy Bruno and Music Alive volunteer David Watkins recently presented another round of donated instruments to Struthers City Schools, continuing a remarkable tradition of community support for music education.

A Legacy of Musical Opportunity

Since 2008, The Marilyn Stroud Music Alive Program has been a beacon of hope for underfunded music programs, focusing on school districts in Struthers, Akron, and Athens. The program's mission is simple yet powerful: collect, repair, and donate musical instruments to students who might otherwise never have the chance to explore musical education.

Your Forgotten Instrument Could Be a Child's Dream

Do you have an old, unused musical instrument gathering dust in your attic, closet, or basement? Those forgotten instruments could be the key to unlocking a young student's musical potential. Many families struggle to afford the cost of musical instruments, and your donation could make a life-changing difference.
