December 30 Update: We’re almost there! Just $255 to go to meet our $4000 match by the end of the year! Donate today to support viola education!
——————-
Thanks to those who have already donated to the newly launched AVS Education Fund! Inspired by your support, our generous donor has increased their commitment by an additional $500 in matching funds for a total of $4000 through December 31. Please help us complete this dollar-for-dollar match supporting viola educators and students by the end of the year. All donations to the American Viola Society are fully tax-deductible, and a donation in honor of a friend. colleague, or teacher makes a great gift. If you have not already done so, please donate today!
Proceeds from the AVS Education Fund will go directly to support viola educators and educational initiatives through AVS Educator Mini-Grants, student scholarships to attend AVS Festivals and International Viola Congresses, and future projects in development.
The AVS Educator Mini-Grant Program launched in 2023 and has already completed two successful cycles, delivering $5000 in direct support to viola educators in support of professional development, student enrichment events, innovative technology for pedagogical use, and much more. We plan to expand this program to serve more viola teachers and students in the future.
To give, simply visit www.americanviolasociety.org/donate/ and click on the “AVS Education Fund” tile. All donations to the AVS Education Fund will go directly to this new endowment, and the first $4000 in donations will be matched dollar for dollar.
