Sponsorship Information

Live professional performances of great music are available to us and our community because of years of dedication and hard work by musicians and volunteers. 75% of the annual budget goes directly to musicians who perform in our concerts and educational programs. Only a fraction of that cost is covered by the income from ticket sales.

Community sponsorship is essential in continuing this unique and special Western New York heritage. Your contribution is valued not only for the dollars it provides, but also as a commitment to cultural excellence in our community.

By supporting the Western New York Chamber Orchestra with a contribution or sponsorship, you can experience the deep personal satisfaction of knowing that your gift will:
· Sustain the tradition of live orchestral concerts as a part of community experience.
· Contribute to something that is special and unique in Western New York.
· Provide recognition for you, your business, or someone you wish to honor.

When you contribute to the Western New York Chamber Orchestra, you make it possible for a professional, not-for-profit musical organization to exist in our community. Established in 1981 by Executive Director James East, the orchestra has been dedicated to the highest standards of artistic excellence and community service. WNYCO provides outstanding concert performances and educational programs for audiences of all ages, providing us with the same programs as any orchestra in a major city—classical, pops and youth concerts, and in-school programs.
