Norwin Play it Forward Fund, Inc., a 501(c)3, non-profit organization provides need-based grants for motivated Norwin instrumental students, grades 5 -12, who desire to improve their musical performance by taking private music lessons or attending summer music camps. The goal for students who benefit is to ultimately play it forward in the future – either financially or of giving their time and talent to help mentor other students – thereby helping to attract and retain membership in the historically successful band and orchestra programs, as well as to support the arts in the Norwin school district. Now entering its fifth year, the fund has supported over 40 students with subsidized lessons, and has provided camp grants to over a dozen students.
