Dear Friends,

I hope this letter finds you well and filled with enthusiasm. My name is Joanna Beamon, and I am the Philanthropy Coordinator at the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra (MYSO). I am reaching out to you today to seek your invaluable support for our 2023 Play Your Part, our student led crowdfunding event (from October 2 to the culmination of a free community concert held on November 5, 2023) that raises funds for financial aid for students who wish to attend our program.

To accomplish this goal, we need your generous support. Your contribution will allow us to offer donation incentives that our student fundraisers will truly cherish and find irresistible. With your generosity, we aim to acquire a range of appealing incentive prizes that will captivate the hearts of teenagers. We are asking for a donation of an item of your choosing such as an experience, gift card or certificate. The item needs to be received by October 14, 2023. These thrilling experiences and coveted items will not only reward the donors but also inspire the teenagers, reminding them of the incredible possibilities that await them on their musical journey.

Your support can truly make a difference in the lives of these talented young musicians. By contributing to our crowdfunding campaign, you can help us provide the resources and opportunities that will fuel their passion for music, ignite their creativity, and pave the way for their future success. Your donation, regardless of the amount, will serve as a catalyst for their dreams and ambitions.

Thank you for being a steadfast supporter of our mission and for recognizing the significance of nurturing the passions of today's youth. Together, we can create a vibrant and empowering environment where teenagers can thrive, explore their musical talents, and shape a future filled with endless possibilities.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Joanna Beamon

Philanthropy Coordinator
