Dear Friend of Music,

Thank you for your interest in supporting our student musicians this school year as a community sponsor of Niskayuna Friends of Music!

As a non-profit parent-volunteer organization, we rely on local businesses and organizations like yours to support our district’s award-winning music program.

With more than 30 concerts, three newsletters, website and social media channels, your name and logo are featured prominently throughout the school year, including:

• A district-wide orchestra festival at Proctors Theatre, for grades 5 – 12
• In front of 500 student musician families attending chorus, band and orchestra concerts
• 12 different high school ensembles, including jazz, chamber and a cappella styles
• Wizard of Oz, our high school musical, with nearly 100 students in the cast, crew and orchestra

As a token of our thanks, you’ll also receive a special Nisky Friends of Music window cling to display at your business. We also offer options to name an auditorium chair and be thanked publicly, on stage, during each concert. As always, your gift is fully tax-deductible and can be paid by check or credit card via PayPal on our website.

Please let us know ASAP to be included in the program for our first fall concert series.

Please join us again, playing your part in the beautiful music our students will be making this school year!

Thank you in advance for your consideration,

Jill Fountain President, Friends of Music
