PLAY YOUR PART – Support GTCYS Students!
“Music must be supported or else it will become a lost art.”
~ GTCYS’ donor
Revenue generated through GTCYS’ tuition and fees comprises just 50% of GTCYS’ annual operating budget. Generous contributions from individuals, foundations, corporations provide the remaining 50%. Here’s how your donation helps educate and inspire the next generation of artists and leaders:
Your gift enriches students’ lives!
GTCYS’ students perform great masterworks, make lifelong friends and take active leadership roles while learning lifelong skills that go beyond music – inspiring them to reach their full potential.
Your gift creates new opportunities for music students!
From the expansion of Rising Harmonies at Sojourner Truth Academy in North Minneapolis to a new East Metro Rehearsal venue in Maplewood, GTCYS is making music available to more students throughout the Twin Cities. Increased financial aid – over $17,000 in need-based scholarships so far this year – gives every child the opportunity to participate.
Your gift creates community vitality!
With 19 concerts this year including outreach performances for underserved individuals and families, GTCYS’ students are making live music accessible across the metro. GTCYS’ programs develop future leaders and audience members for our thriving arts community.
