DONATIONS
All Financial proceeds from our performances and events allow us to further our goal of supporting young gifted artists to obtain their musical dreams and aspirations.
Our goal is to raise funds to award financial scholarships to deserving young high school seniors who have made the decision to pursue a degree and career in music.
We present two major concerts per year and rely heavily on ticket sales, donations and contributions from supporters like yourself, throughout the year. These monetary awards are presented annually at our spring scholarship event where our award recipients, past and present, also have an opportunity to present their amazing talents in performance.
