Young Musicians Scholarship Fund
The Young Musicians Scholarship Fund is now officially a non-profit charity and all donations made to this fund are tax deductible. This year we were able to support 20 of our members’ children or students with scholarships to help defray the costs of their summer music camp programs throughout the United States. All this has been made possible due to donations from our members and supporters, in honor or in memory of someone.

Most of our students who receive acceptance into summer music programs have passed an audition process. The cost range of the programs that we provided scholarship funds for this year was from $455 to $4,700. Parents make a tremendous sacrifice to provide their children with private lesson training, and summer specialty camps. This is why we established this scholarship fund for our member’s benefit. We wanted to help defray costs and support our membership.

We would like to provide even larger scholarship grants and, with your help, we will be able to do this in the future.

If you wish to honor someone, now or in the future, use this fund. The recipient will receive a letter informing them of your wishes on their behalf and listing you as the donor. If you wish a special sentiment, we will add that to the letter. You, in turn, will receive documentation of the donation for tax purposes. If there is no one special at this time and you contribute to the fund, you may request a letter be sent at another time.

To the teachers whose students benefited from this program, consider adding a donation to keep this funding possible for your students in the coming year. Contribute whatever you can.
