Brockton’s HarborOne Credit Union has donated $15,000 to help the high school marching band buy new uniforms.

"We have long-admired our award winning band, and we were looking for a way to express our appreciation," said HarborOne CEO James Blake. "The existing uniforms were 22 years old, far older than the students wearing them. Each uniform costs $300, so our contribution will offset the cost of 50 of them. We encourage other businesses and individuals to join us in this show of support."

The Brockton High Music Department wants to purchase 175 new uniforms and is hosting a fundraising concert on Nov. 7 at the school auditorium, a tribute to the late Dick Johnson. Tickets are $5 and are on sale at the main office of Brockton High.
