Amir Wyman Jones, a 6 year old who has Autism, loves music. He didn't know what instrument he wanted to play but he did like the trumpet. President Fryson noticed and sprung into action. Now as a gift from the organization, we gifted him his first trumpet.

NOLA Legacy is looking for an instructor who would like to give free lessons to this young man amd who has the patience of teaching him. Please DM us if you have the time to give a couple of lessons to this young man....
