TYMS Depends on Community Support.

TYMS intends to continue making music and creating opportunity for children and teens in Taos County. To do so, we need your help. The actual cost to provide weekly music classes is approximately $350 per student. Because we are a tuition-free program, we rely almost entirely on gifts from individuals, public and private foundations, and businesses to operate. We actively raise funds in a variety of ways throughout the year, in events and activities that involve our community as a whole, as well as targeted funders. We have never turned away a student who wants to learn. 

Each and every gift, regardless of size, counts and is put to immediate use to retain our outstanding teachers, purchase and repair instruments and make this exceptional program available to all.  TYMS puts all gifts to use to support our teachers, students and our programming.

TYMS is a registered 501 (c)(3) non-profit, so 100% of your gift is tax deductible.  

Please consider supporting us with a tax deductible gift in an amount that is comfortable to you. In doing so, you give the gift of music and then some to young people in Taos County. 

It’s easy to give.
