4. Donate an Instrument

We’re grateful for donations of pre-loved, playable musical instruments — no matter their condition! Your gift could transform the life of a child in our programme.

Currently, we’re especially seeking:

  • Orchestral instruments (strings, brass, woodwind), including violin, viola, cello, double bass, trombone, trumpet, flute, and clarinet

  • Folding music stands

  • Spare strings, rosin, bows, and related accessories

Please note: we don’t need music books or sheet music.

If you’d like to donate or have a different instrument in mind, please email us at info@sistemaaotearoa.org.nz. We’ll gladly arrange a new home where your instrument will be cherished and played.
