Illinois Chime Loan Program
Illinois, as part of Area 8 of the Handbell Musicians of America, wishes to encourage schools and other educational institutions (both public and private schools) to develop music education programs using handchimes and handbells. To support the development of such programs, we are pleased to offer a grant program to schools.
The grant provides a 3 octave set of handchimes for one semester (approx. 4 months) with teaching materials, a support network and/or mentor, and a one-year membership to Handbell Musicians of America.
