Donations
All gifts are fully tax-deductible under IRS Section 501(c)3.
The Academy of Music Northwest (like every non-profit music school in the country) needs annual donations to meet forty percent of its annual operating budget.
Tuition can only cover 50-60 percent of expenses (just as ticket sales cover only partial operating costs for other performance-oriented organizations).
Matching Fund donations double your gift. Donations are needed from individuals, families, businesses, corporations, and
foundations. Donations to foundations (such as United Way or Seattle Foundation)
may specify the Academy of Music Northwest as a partial, percentage,
or total recipient.
Gifts may be made by check, or online through PayPal (below).
RIGHT NOW:
We need to replace our outdated 2 CD players with 2 Bose "Wave" 3 disk changer and free I-Pod dock ($100 value). Each Bose Unit is $749/plus tax. With the donation,
we can order from Bose directly. Bose does not give discounts even to non-profit organizations.
Bose is recognized by all sound experts as the best in the world.
To donate online now, just press the Donate button below, and we all Thank
