Musical Instrument Rental Partnership Program

What are the benefits?

Funding for Music Programs

Instrument rentals can provide an average of $10.00 per month for every instrument rented. As an example:
100 Instruments = $1000 per month!
500 Instruments = $5000 per month!
1000 Instruments = $10,000 per month!
(If students need to rent an instrument to participate in your school music program this is an easy way for them to support their own music programs.)

How does the Partnership work?

The SMART Foundation can supply a “Turn-Key” program that would include the rental instruments, an exchange program for damaged instruments and provide a billing and collections service.

The SMART Rental Partner would develop support for the program within their school district, provide a few volunteers to help rent the instruments out through a special event at the beginning of the school year and provide minor support throughout the remainder school year.
