Introducing the Sunburst Music Scholarship Fund

November 3, 2017

We’re thrilled to announce that we’re partnering with New Sun Rising to form the Sunburst Music Scholarship Fund , a new scholarship aimed at providing free or low cost music lessons to kids from lower income families. Learning music can have a profound impact on the minds and lives of young people, and it’s our goal to make sure that our lessons and group programs are accessible to everyone. 

In order to make this happen we need the help of you, the students and families of Sunburst. We’ll be accepting donations on our website, at our recitals and in the waiting room. Since music lessons are ongoing in nature, we’re also looking for anyone interested in doing a monthly ongoing donation, essentially sponsoring a student. Finally, we’re planning a major fund raiser event for early next year. More details to follow.

 

The other way in which we need your help is in building awareness about our scholarship. Aside from making sure that we raise money for the fund, we need to make sure that we get the word out to the communities who would benefit most from what we’re offering. If you know of anyone who would be a good candidate for our scholarship or who might be a good community partner for us, please put them in touch!
