Hey Mike, texas has this program... http://www.lonestarukefest.com/pages/UkesInTheClassroom.php I personally do what I can, and have given away at least 6 ukes so far...I have some out on "semi-permanent loan" because some people just wouldn't accept the gift! Go figure!Anyone know of schools or non-profit programs that teach uke to kids or disadvantaged people.
I'm attempting to get a Uke club going at my school. I've started with a few Ukes and am planning to hit up PTO for a few more. They are not disadvantaged kids in terms of income, but most have a parent who is deployed.
Kainalu Elementary School in Kailua, Hawai'i where I worked has a weekly after school 'ukulele program. I believe most Hawai'i public elementary schools now offer similar programs.
