GITC thanks the D'Addario Music Foundation and the D'Addario Family for the generous support you provide to Guitars in the Classroom!
In 2010, D'Addario made sure every teacher in our programs had a set of fresh new guitar strings!
They also provided electronic tuners for our programs and funded special projects.
Our trainers, staff, classroom teachers and students are so grateful for your help learning to make music!
