The Spirit of '76 Boosters is a 501(c) 3 charitable organization dedicated to fostering a love of music in all students, and providing opportunities to develop and display their musical skills.

Funds are raised voluntarily through special initiatives, restaurant dine-outs, product sales, online fundraisers, and events. No student will ever be denied participation in the PHHS Music Program for lack of resources or financial support. Those who can contribute are vital to providing music education and opportunity for all students, and your generosity is very much appreciated and vitally necessary.
Below are some of the easiest ways to get involved and support us. Thank you!

Dear PHHS Music Family,
The downbeat is here! We’re kicking off the 2025 Band Fall Fundraiser to keep PHHS music vibrant, inclusive, and accessible for every student—and we have just 4 weeks to raise $25,000 before our fall drive ends October 31.
The Spirit of ’76 Boosters (a 501(c)(3)) is all-in on student opportunity—no student is ever turned away for financial reasons. Your gift fuels the essentials that turn practice into performance:
Coaching & competition fees that elevate skills
Equipment & instrument repairs that keep us performance-ready
Transportation & staging so students can show what they’ve built
Uniforms that help them look as confident as they sound
Our annual operating costs are approaching $100,000. Every dollar you give keeps the music playing—and the growth, teamwork, and confidence that come with it.
Donate today (and share with one friend!):

Your donation is tax-deductible, and many employers match gifts—a quick HR check could double your impact.

With gratitude,
