Support the American Youth Philharmonic Orchestras!

AYPO's orchestral training program provides the region's most talented young musicians with professional music training. Unfortunately, a program offering this caliber of experience does not come without a price.

Did you know? Student tuition covers only a portion of AYPO's budget (60 percent). The remainder must be raised each season from corporate contributions, foundation and government grants, ticket sales, special events, and individual donations. Corporations and foundations often base their gifts on participation levels of individual donors, and are more inclined to give generously to organizations that can demonstrate broad-based support and commitment from those they serve. Your gift, no matter how big or small, will make a world of difference for our young musicians and ensure that the AYPO experience is available for generations of children to come!

Here is how your gift can help AYPO:

$100

pays for one coaching music session

$500

pays for one student scholarship for a full year

$1,000

pays for instrument cases for percussion equipment

$2,500

pays for rehearsal space at a public school for two youth orchestras for a full year

$5,000

pays for production costs for one concert
