Donations
Amador Music depends on donations from families to maintain our programs.
Your donations help fund many things that district funding cannot fully cover:
MARCHING BAND UNIFORMS • FIELD SHOW MUSIC • CHOREOGRAPHY • COMPETITION FEES • PROPS • TRANSPORTATION • COLOR GUARD EQUIPMENT • INSTRUMENT PURCHASES • INSTRUMENT REPAIRS • SHEET MUSIC • COACHING STIPENDS
Students may participate in our music programs regardless of financial ability. The AFM annual budget is developed on the premise that all families will contribute as much as they are able. All donations are greatly appreciated, even if you cannot give the full suggested amount.
Please contact AFM treasurer Ed Chen (treasurer@amadormusic.org) with any questions.
