Support St. Joseph's School of Music

The SJSM fund

The SJSM Fund is St. Joseph’s School of Music’s unrestricted annual giving program. Through the SJSM Fund, student families, alumni, and community members can support our annual budget.

Tuition, ticket, and registration revenue alone do not cover the cost of an SJSM education. Like all non-profits, we rely on contributions from our community to make up the rest. Gifts of every size make a difference!

The Scholarship fund

At St. Joseph’s School of Music, we believe everyone should have a chance to flourish. Your donation to the scholarship fund helps make that possible for students who demonstrate financial need.

Why give?

  • When you give to SJSM, you give people of all ages and abilities access to the joy and power of a music education.
  • Your donation supports over forty teacher artists, and over 800 music students in the Twin Cities area, giving them the opportunity to ignite the spark of their own ability and creativity, instill confidence, and realize dreams.
  • Your support enables SJSM to enrich our community with more than fifty performances annually, throughout our neighborhoods.

Volunteer

Be a part of the SJSM team by volunteering at concerts, events, or with administrative help. Simply select an opportunity (or several!) that interests you and include your contact information.

SJSM encourages interest and application from a broad and diverse population.  St. Joseph’s School of Music does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin, religion, marital status, political belief, sexual orientation, or disability.
