Keep the Music Playing! Get your donations matched through CHEF today!

Dear Livermore Music Family,

🎵 Keep the Music Playing: Support Our Livermore High Musicians! 🎵

Livermore High’s award-winning high school music department brings pride to our community, but we need your support to keep the music playing.

We’re kicking off our biggest fundraiser of the year this September, and we need your help to make it a resounding success! This year, Livermore Music has an incredible opportunity: for every $2 we raise, CHEF (Community Health & Education Foundation) will match it with $1.

That means if we hit our goal of $30,000, CHEF will contribute up to an additional $15,000, bringing us to an amazing $45,000!

But here’s the thing—we can’t do this without you

The LHS music program will experience a significant funding shortfall this year, and we need extra support to give our kids the experiences they deserve. We receive limited funding from the Livermore school district. Whether it’s new instruments, expert coaching, or unforgettable performances, your donation makes all the difference.

Here’s how your contribution will make a difference:

  1. Professional Music Coaches: Your donations pay for weekly sessions with accomplished musicians who guide our students to success in concerts, musical festivals, and competitions.
  2. Essential Resources: Funds go towards purchasing sheet music, hiring buses for festivals, covering entrance fees for competitions, buying and repairing instruments, and more.
  3. Limited-Time Matching Opportunity: For the month of September only, the CHEF Foundation will generously match 50% of every dollar you donate. This is a short-term offer that is available to us this September, so we need to raise as much as possible now.

Support your student: Donate NOW!

This is Livermore Music’s one big fundraiser for the entire year. Your financial support is crucial to ensuring our students receive the exceptional music education they deserve. With CHEF’s generous match, every dollar you give stretches 1.5x further.  

Here’s the breakdown of our suggested donation for the 2024-2025 school year. 

Thank you for keeping Livermore High School’s award-winning public music program thriving, inspiring our students, and bringing pride to our community!
