 
Interesting to note: Only 38% of the symphony's income is generated through ticket sales. This means that nearly 2/3 of what we pay to create outstanding music must come from other sources.
Your financial gift to the symphony's Annual Fund helps us keep playing that beautiful music. But what does this music cost? The examples below illustrate the importance every single dollar makes to the goal of reaching listeners of all ages during a typical WCFSO season.
$38 New music stand
$50 Music rental for Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream Overture
$100 Annual upkeep for Instrument Petting Zoo equipment
$200 Music rental for Dvorák’s Symphony No.8
$300 Purchase of one full set of parts for Holst’s The Planets
$300 Cost of purchasing a new preschool-size violin for our Instrument Petting Zoo
$500 Cost of paying a writer to provide BRAVO program notes
$600 Presenting a free Lollipop Concert to children
$720 Music rental for Barber’s Cello Concerto
$1500 Three free Ensembles in the Schools programs in local schools
The financial support you provide allows our music to continue. For information on the different donor levels and the benefits attached to each dollar category, call 319-273-3373.
