Support Your Music School
Thanks to our gracious donors, Crescendo Academy of Music can continue to help musicians of all ages improve through professional, effective music programs.
Annual Fund
We work hard creating exceptional music programs; each year our student enrollment grows, but the price of music instruction covers only a portion of our expenses. Our annual fund campaign raises those important dollars that we need to support our operations.
Scholarships
We are dedicated to offering scholarships to over 10% of our students. A gift to our scholarship campaign ensures that one more student will realize the joy of music in their life.
Your gift of:
$27.00 = one 30-minute lesson
$60.00 = two sessions of Community Voices Ensemble
$150.00 = one session of Community Strings Orchestra
$200.00 = one session of Black American Music (BAM) Ensemble
$585.00 = 30 weeks of Music Together classes
$1,000.00 = one year of 30-minute lessons
