July, 2024
We have begun our 20th year as a non-profit foundation.
Funding
We
are seeking sponsors to assist with achieving our primary goal - to provide
live traditional big band era music to the Northeastern Ohio area's senior
audiences. Sponsorship can take two forms:
- Help
us reach our audiences
by contacting activities directors or others you know at senior centers
and senior resident facilities or by providing us with information we
can follow up. Enjoy the band? Please spread the word!
- Financial
sponsorship
There are expenses in starting, equipping, promoting and operating such
an organization and in underwriting the costs of performance which exceed
the resources the musicians can provide unaided. Many facilities do
not have budgets that allow them to fully pay for the band, about $600
minimum per concert. Support from sponsors is needed to make up the
difference. Contributions are tax deductible.
We have been granted non-profit foundation status and are applying
for several foundation grants but
we would still appreciate any individual or company support.
