good idea! good luck with it!

This sounds like a really great idea but I think you need to expand on it a bit more so that you can really put it into action. For example, what is the end goal of this project? Is it to put on a show or to provide these kids with scholarships? How will you get the money for these scholarships? Will you sell the tickets to your shows or solicit donations?

Just some things to think about! I think once you get some of these questions figured out and put together a proposal, you should really try applying for a Do Something grant to get yourself started. Learn more about the grants here:

Keep up the great work!

Thank you soooooo much for your advice and input. Im getting started right now with answering these important questions, which then will help with the writing of the proposal.

Thanks A lot dude!!!
