Justin Covert is an accomplished percussionist and founder of The Kenya Percussion Project. Started in January 2008, their mission has been to provide musical instruments and instruction to the various areas of Africa. Last year Justin travelled to the rural Kasigau villages in Tsavo, where he spent 2 weeks to educating and introducing his approach to marching percussion and the culture of DCI. The Kenya Percussion Project is currently accepting monetary donations and used instruments for this year’s trip in which Justin will be spending 3 month abroad in Africa to spread the joy of drumming. At this time the KPP is also accepting applications for future staff members, for more info please email tkpp08@yahoo.com This past October Justin and the KPP were featured on the WGI website in the article we have provided below.

"Our mission is to use our God given gifts to enrich minds, hearts, and personal character through music!"

To find out what you can do to help this worthwhile cause please visit www.tkpp.org and make a contribution today!
