AYO awarded $45,523.55 in scholarships during the 2025-26 school year.

AYO's mission is to make sure that EVERY student is able to participate in music classes regardless of their financial or socioeconomic situation. That is why we started the Advancing Young Musicians Fund. 

The Advancing Young Musicians Fund will be used for tuition fee waivers, rental instrument fee waivers, music books, instruments, and much more! In the coming years, we will be adding transportation assistance, scholarships for students pursuing music in college, and other resources our students need. 

Every dollar donated to the Advancing Young Musicians Fund goes directly to supporting a student in need.
