It's all for the children

Your donation helps us keep participation in the Ypsilanti Youth Orchestra free for all students and families. Your donation is tax-deductible, and your gift will be recognized in our printed concert programs. Every gift makes a difference for our children!

JOIN THE FERMATA CLUB

“Fermata” is the musical term for “hold or sustain” and we invite you to consider becoming a monthly donor at the $5, $10, $20, or $25 level to sustain your impact. Together we will continue to deliver transformative experiences through music!

SNACK Fund

YYO families, friends and community members can make a one-time or recurring donation to contribute to the weekly snack fund. Let’s keep our young musicians fueled and hydrated!

DONATE AN Instrument

Your donation of an instrument helps students who cannot rent or purchase an instrument. We are currently in critical need of the following instruments:

Violins: 3/4 size, 1/2 size

Instrument Donation Guidelines:

  • Due to space limitations, YYO can only accept instruments that current students can use for classes.

  • Please inspect your instrument and its case (if applicable) to ensure it is free of contaminants (i.e., bodily fluids, insects, or mold).

  • Please complete our Instrument Donation Form, and a team member will be in touch with you. Thank you for your in-kind donation to YYO!
