Your support today is more important than ever!

Donate

Your tax-deductible donation today means that the next time you join us for a concert, your Aiken Symphony will be there to share the joy of live music with you as a healthy, vibrant, and financially secure organization while enhancing the very community we call home.  Please consider the role music and the arts play in your life and donate today!

Many patrons may not be aware that ticket revenues cover less than 50% of the cost of running an orchestra.  This is true for all professional symphonies which means additional financial support must be sourced from individuals, business partners, and grants.

Please consider making a personal investment in the Aiken Symphony. Your donation will help us continue to build a durable foundation upon which the quality of life for all the citizens of Aiken is enhanced.  By clicking “Donate Today”, your secure donation can begin to make a difference immediately!

The Aiken Symphony is a not-for-profit 501 (c)(3) organization.  Donors contributing over $50 receive a written thank you from our board and all donors are recognized in our concert programs.
