We Count on Your Support
Triangle Youth Music depends on the generosity of individuals. Support from grants and student membership fees only provide us with some of the funds needed to run our programs.
You can also donate to our Endowment Fund, which was established to provide long-term stability. TYM has established “chairs” for the acknowledgement of larger donations.
We are always in need of volunteers to help with our various programs. Head to our volunteer page to learn more about ways you can help!
