Description

Dear Friends of CMS,

We are so excited to be hosting our 32nd Annual Student PERFORMATHON on Saturday, May 4th, 2024!  CMS is a non-profit organization whose mission is to enrich lives and communities by offering excellent music education, performances, and cultural experiences. Our annual PERFORMATHON is an all-day marathon student recital fund-raiser, where students from our 600+ student body raise sponsorships for their performance. All proceeds benefit our student scholarship fund that provides merit and need-based scholarships, as well as free or discounted programming for our students and our community. Over the last 30 years, we have raised over $380,000 for CMS students who otherwise may not have been able to advance their love for music.

 In addition to more than 200 students performing throughout the day, the PERFORMATHON is open to the public with events and entertainment all day long!  There will be basket raffles, instrument yard sale, games, bake sale and much more!  Rain or shine, hundreds of families and community members come together to support our students and enjoy a day of fun for all ages!

 This year, CMS is once again reaching out to local businesses to ask for support.  Your contribution to PEFORMATHON will give your business a direct and focused opportunity to reach parents, siblings, grandparents and friends right here in our community! 

 You can support this worthy cause and publicize your business in one or more of the following ways:

 DONATION: Donate merchandise, services, tickets, or gift certificates for the raffle gift baskets. Donors will be listed in the program book and are welcome to display marketing material.


EVENT SPONSOR: Become an Event or Performance-Hour Sponsor and highlight your business throughout the day, including vendor table, signage and special mentions during the program.


PROGRAM BOOK AD:  Place an ad that will appear in the PERFORMATHON program book, distributed to all our 600 CMS families.
 

Please consider making a contribution by completing the enclosed form and returning it to CMS.  If you would prefer to have us pick it up, give us a call!  The deadline for sponsorships, advertising and donations is April 15th. For more information or questions, please contact us at Wright-Conti@cmsmusic.org or 610-489-3676.

Community Music School and this wonderful event would not be celebrating their 31st year without your support. Please help us make this year the best ever as we honor our 30 years! On behalf of all our students, we thank you for your generous support!
