Jerry Joseph and Michael Lewis. These guys raised $25,000 via an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign. The contributions are being used to bring musical instruments to the students and to pay for the trip. (Apparently How to Shoot Backseat Sunglass Selfies will be part of the curriculum as well.)


Michael Lewis (at right) has already been involved with the school. This is from a 2013 session.
