The band also has other instruments to lend or hire to players. See the band's online page for more information.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

25.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.5% ... It is complicated
