Annual Fund
Your Gift is Key
ABOUT THE ANNUAL FUND
"Music acts like a magic key to which the most tightly closed heart opens."
- Maria Augusta Von Trapp
There is nothing like the energy of live music. It has a power to connect us to the most human parts of ourselves and assures us that we are not alone.
Just as music itself is sparked by this need for connection with others, the Western Piedmont Symphony needs your help. Making a gift to the Annual Fund will help the Western Piedmont Symphony return to live performances, which we all miss so much. Consider adding onto your gift to support #PlayOn, a campaign that directly benefits musicians safely making the return to the stage.
We cannot wait to once again open the doors to our performance halls, but we cannot do it without you. Your gift is the key to unlocking the power of live music.

LEVELS OF GENEROSITY
At Western Piedmont Symphony, we deeply value our supporters and strive to make them feel appreciated. We've revamped our Levels of Generosity in order to show our appreciation for our supporters. These gifts are used to support our primary mission of providing musical performances of distinction that enrich and enliven the community’s classical music experience
Below, you can see the benefits of becoming a Western Piedmont Symphony Supporter.
Keep in mind that these levels are CUMULATIVE, meaning to reach a certain level, the full amount does not need to be given at once.
Every gift – large or small – is important to us, and will be acknowledged in our annual program book. THANK YOU for your gift! Our Western Piedmont Symphony depends on your generosity!
