Private Schools

Funding for presentations given at private schools has been made possible by the school PTOs and private donors at American Heritage & Academy Schools and Palm Beach Day School.

In the spring and summer of 2004, Mari Bell was funded by Cultural Affairs and Parks and Recreation Department to teach JazzSLAM concepts to small groups of elementary and middle school students at 18 Broward County Parks & Recreation Centers. In addition, Mari received funding from the Children’s Services Council to teach JazzSLAM concepts for The Deerfield Housing Authority “Afterschool Project S.H.A.R.E. Program”.

Previous grants to JazzSLAM have been received from Target, BankAtlantic Foundation, FAB, power2give, Business for the Arts of Broward, and The A.D. Henderson Foundation.
