Chinquapin Preparatory School's mission is to "provide a high-quality college-preparatory education to highly motivated students from Houston's under-resourced communities and schools." Although the school has existed since 1969, it has never had an orchestra program until now, a task Sharon Neufeld has taken up in creating this opportunity for Chinquapin's students! The school has access to very few instruments , but thanks to our generous donors, The Houston Instrument Share has been able to provide the Chinquapin Preparatory School with a piano and violin, and we are in the process of collecting more instruments to provide to the school!

Jose Gutierrez is a senior with a deep love for piano who was unable to practice when his piano's strings rusted. Thanks to a donation from a generous Houston music-lover, The Houston Instrument Share was able to provide Jose with a grand piano, allowing him to continue growing as a musician. Jose especially loves performing Latin music and won 2nd place in the Ponce International Competition, 5th division, in August 2025!
