OGDEN, Utah — Ron Proctor, a teacher at Mound Fort Jr. High in Ogden, needed a little help raising funds for his "box banjos" project, a creative way to help students learn to make their own musical instruments.

Mr. Proctor was trying to raise $1,000 to buy the materials for students to make their own box banjos, but the donations weren't sufficient to help him get the project off the ground.

The FOX 13 Dream Team "Zoom-bombed" Mr. Proctor to help him reach his goal.
