Donate

Cash is Queen.

(But we also love instruments, gear, and meals!)

We need your help to continue to create spaces for girls, women, and gender-expansive youths and adults to sing out, speak up, and make a lot of noise!

Every contribution – scholarships, sponsors, gear donations, meals support, in-kind gifts – supports our youth programming and helps us continue as a sustainable organization for years to come. 

Plus, monthly donors provide the reliable support BRPM needs to plan and run youth programming year round. Every dollar makes a difference!

Boston Raising Powerful Musicians, Inc. is a 501(c)3 organization. Make a tax-deductible contribution today.

What Can Your donation Do?
