Support the IWS

Music has the power to connect us all on a deeper level.

It reminds us that we are not alone—that somewhere, someone else feels the same way we do. Every dollar donated to the Indiana Wind Symphony supports our efforts to connect more people through music. 

We are grateful to our generous sponsors and donors whose support sustains the IWS and its mission to enrich lives through musical experiences.

Why Donate?

The Indiana Wind Symphony plays a vital role in enhancing the quality of life for area residents by presenting outstanding symphonic music, a cornerstone of any vibrant community. While the IWS has embraced an ambitious and innovative approach to expanding its audience, ticket sales account for only about 30% of our annual operating budget.

Your support not only sustains inspiring performances; it also invests in the next generation of musicians. Through our annual concerto competition and scholarship program, outstanding young performers have the opportunity to earn a scholarship and perform alongside the Indiana Wind Symphony on stage.

Please consider making a gift today. Your generous support helps sustain a beloved performing arts organization in Central Indiana.
