Sponsors are integral to fulfilling our mission of providing musical education and performance opportunities for young musicians in Northern New Jersey. We are a not-for-profit organization and contributions to the Lakeland Youth Symphony are tax-deductible. Please consider donating to our general fund or scholarship program, which makes this opportunity accessible to all.

Have an instrument looking for a new home? Consider donating it to Lakeland Youth Symphony! Just like a financial contribution, your instrument donation helps us provide young musicians with access to quality instruments they might not otherwise afford. Plus, your donation is tax-deductible. We’ll make sure it goes to a student who will put it to good use!
