Endowed Merit Scholarships
At San Diego Youth Symphony and Conservatory we ensure that every student with the desire to participate in our programs is given the opportunity. This season, the Board of Directors has awarded nearly $125,000 in scholarships for students in financial need and for exceptional merit. These scholarships are underwritten by generous donors with a passion for guaranteeing every student can take the path of personal success that comes with the study of music.
We extend our appreciation to these individuals and groups of donors for their generous commitment to student success and invite you to add your support to this essential scholarship effort by contacting SDYS Individual Giving Manager Terry Williams, , at twilliams@sdys.org or call 619-233-3232 x160.
