WHO ARE WE?
We, at The National Youth Orchestra Foundation, believe that if a child has the desire to play a stringed instrument then that child should have the opportunity. Our goal is to provide these opportunities to children, especially in rural or impoverished areas of our country. We want to “Give the gift of music to children”.
The National Youth Orchestra Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit, tax exempt, IRS 501(c)(3), corporation, funded by grants, donations, corporate sponsorships, and private contributions, which is dedicated to the funding of startup school orchestra programs in elementary and middle schools across the country. With school budget cuts, increasingly aimed at music and other fine arts programs, such opportunities are rapidly diminishing for our children. Our goal is to create and preserve them.
