Piano donation letter — File 197083
TO: Jimmy Del Ponte BFA, Somerville Youth Arts Coordinator
To Whom It May Concern,
I wish to donate my upright piano to Somerville Youth Arts through James DelPointe.
This piano is in excellent
condition and has been well cared for for twenty years. Although it has been some time
since it was last tuned,
a musician friend who would play for us commented that it was a high quality
instrument.
My wife and I bought this upright twenty years when my then pre-teen daughter
developed and interest in the piano.
After high school, she lost interest and the piano has occupied a place of honor in my
family room and has been well
cared for. We are redecorating, and decided that we would part with the piano in hopes
that it would inspire some
other youngster who might not have access to a piano for practice. A friend from
Somerville was aware of the Youth
organization and suggested it when I mentioned my desire to donate it to a worthy
cause.
I wish to donate my upright Haller Miller Piano to Somerville Youth Arts without payment
of any kind, and with
no reservations.
