Why Give?

Ticket revenue only accounts for 25% of the money necessary to bring great classical music to you! Donors help sustain the orchestra; we rely on your support to produce high caliber music in Sacramento. Consider one of the many ways to contribute to the orchestra and join the Philharmonic family!

For fifteen years, The Sacramento Philharmonic Orchestra has worked to:

  • connect people of all ages and backgrounds with the power and beauty of music
  • share musical energy and education with tens of thousands of students annually
  • bring harmony to hospital patients and homeless families in transition
  • enrich the cultural vibrancy of the greater Sacramento region

Whether you can afford $15 or $15,000, your support is vital
to the future and sustainability of this orchestra.


In honor of this 15th anniversary season, the Sacramento Philharmonic Orchestra Foundation has created a special challenge grant to match new and increased contributions. Between now and March 31, 2012, this special initiative could generate additional $100,000 funding to help us reach our goal of $1,000,000 per year for each of the next 3 years, a sum that careful financial analysis shows would put the Philharmonic on the path to stability and sustainability, according to industry standards.
