I've been trying to reach somebody – anybody, really – at the School of Honk to see if they'd like an old saxophone (E♭ alto) as a donation. I've tried emailing a couple times to their google address as per their website, but I haven't heard back.

Is there somebody here affiliated with them? Or who could reach them? I understand they have a Facebook presence, but I don't use Facebook. If any of you are FB users and could nudge them there to maybe check their gmail inbox, and also its spam filter, or drop by here, that would be lovely.

Alternatively: does anybody need a sax?

ETA: All gone! Thanks!

If the sax is functional, a school district would probably be able to make much better use of it. - there’s always kids who want to play but can’t afford the rental fees.

I could use a sax :-) I'm actually in SoH (but not a official rep) and have a side habit of picking up used brass instruments, washing/paying for minor repairs, and giving to band folks in need of them (e.g., recently trash-picked a trumpet literally in pieces, got our brass guy to reassemble it for $25, then gave to a kid who was losing his rental this month).

If you aren't specifically looking for a tax receipt, I'm happy to meet up and get it. My cell is 617-212-3056.
