Become a Community Sponsor

Dear community member,

Thank you for your interest in sponsoring Niskayuna Friends of Music for the 2026-27 school year.

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 choral festival for students in 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
  • Chess, our high school musical, with nearly 100 students in the cast, crew and orchestra

As a Friend of Music sponsor, your business or organization appears in the printed program for ALL of these performances! From November through May, you will reach thousands of teachers, students, parents, grandparents and family members, who see your support of music in our schools!

We also feature your logo in three district-wide newsletters, as well as our website. You will receive a special Nisky Friends of Music window cling to display at your business. You can also name a chair in our auditorium and be thanked during remarks at each concert. As always, your gift is fully tax-deductible and can be paid by check or credit card via PayPal on our website.

Thank you in advance for playing your part in the music our students are making this school year!
