Window Supply Company (WSC), a West Lothian-based window and door manufacturer, has donated £1,000 to the West Lothian Schools Pipe Band. The donation supports the band's ambition to perform at the Tartan Day Parade in New York in 2027, marking its 20th anniversary on an international stage.
Fundraising Target of £5,000
The parent fundraising committee is working to raise £5,000 to ensure every band member can take part without financial barriers. The campaign invites local businesses, organisations, and community members to contribute to the once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Community Support and Commitment
Kevin Harvey, Managing Director of WSC, said: “We’re delighted to support the West Lothian Schools Pipe Band with a £1,000 donation towards their trip to New York. The commitment of the parent fundraising committee to ensure that every member of the band can take part is testament to the incredible community spirit behind the band. We’re proud to play a small role in helping make this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity possible and wish the band every success with their fundraising.”
The award-winning band has provided free piping and drumming tuition to young people across West Lothian for 20 years. The trip to New York offers a fitting celebration of that milestone.
Encouraging Further Donations
WSC's donation is part of its ongoing commitment to supporting community initiatives. The company encourages other businesses and individuals to help the committee reach its £5,000 target, ensuring financial circumstances do not prevent any young musician from participating.
