My orchestra students need basic daily supplies in order to play their instruments. There are several school instruments that need to be re-strung because the strings are so old they're close to breaking! Rosin is a must for the bow to work properly. Unfortunately, rosin is very delicate and it breaks easily. We've had to say goodbye to several cakes of rosin already this year, and it's only September!
My orchestra budget has not increased in 10 years, which means that it hasn't kept up with inflation. I now have to prioritize what I spend my money on, and many years, I have to sacrifice purchasing supplies that I know my students need because I had to buy something more important, like instruments and music books.
