Music Loves Ohio president, Matt Crumpton, with Jeff McCargish from Ft. Hayes High School

Music Loves Ohio is proud to support Fort Hayes High School and its music program. On Tuesday, November 22, MLO president, Matt Crumpton, delivered four new keyboards and four new keyboard kits (chargers, sustain pedals, headphones, etc.) to Fort Hayes High School music teacher, Jeff McCargish.

“Music Loves Ohio has been in the fundraising stage for a long time. Now, we have reached a point where – through the generous donations of Central Ohioans and others – we are putting instruments in the hands of Central Ohio youth who otherwise may not have had the opportunity to play,” said Crumpton.

MLO, through its Instrument Loan Program, also donated three refurbished instruments to be used by Fort Hayes students, including a saxophone, a violin, and a xylophone.

“We look forward to putting more instruments in the hands of youth and affecting more lives in the future,” Crumpton said.
