Revenue generated through GTCYS tuition, audition fees and ticket sales comprises just 60% of GTCYS annual operating budget. Generous contributions from foundations, corporations and individuals provide the remaining 40%. It is this contributed revenue that we call GTCYS Annual Fund.
Grants and contributions to the Annual Fund affect each and every GTCYS musician. Contributed income subsidizes over half of each students tuition, and enables GTCYS to offer partial to full scholarships to students with economic need. Without the generous support of our donors, tuition rates would skyrocket, ticket prices would increase substantially, and the GTCYS program would be cut.
Help us keep the music going for future generations. Make a credit card contribution today, via our safe and secure online giving form. Or, print the giving form and send it with your check.
You can double your investment in GTCYS by including a matching gift form from your employer. Just ask your human resources or corporate giving department for the form, fill out your portion, and send it in with your gift. GTCYS will take care of the rest. And, well send you a confirmation when we receive your employers matching gift.
