The TŌN Fund Donors
As we begin our celebration of the orchestra’s 10th Anniversary season, TŌN gratefully acknowledges the generosity of each and every donor who makes our work possible.
Ticket sales cover less than a quarter of the expenses for our concerts and educational initiatives. With the sustained support of audiences like you, we can continue this unique educational program for classical musicians on the cusp of professional careers.
For detailed information on contributing to TŌN, or to update your listing, please contact Nicole M. de Jesús at [email protected] or 845.758.7988. Thank you for making this important investment in the future of classical music!
