DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT WITH BAND TOGETHER

For the first time, we are partnering with Band Together's Mighty Giveback Concert.

Together, these initiatives will reach thousands of students, families, and community members through the power of music and music education. Sponsors have the unique opportunity to receive recognition through both opportunities with a single investment by adding on a Band Together sponsorship to their RMC Founding Season sponsorship.

At the Raleigh Music Collective, students’ lives are transformed through excellent, accessible, and equitable music education.

We believe music education is an incredible tool to radically transform childrens' lives for the better. Whether a student is participating in orchestra and technique classes at our nucleo, diving into their first year of learning a string instrument at a community hub, or working one on one with a teacher in our lessons studio, our students are given the opportunity to thrive in a supportive community regardless of background.

We aim to foster a diverse community of young musicians whose lives are changed through the power of music education.

“Over the years, I have been a part of the Raleigh Music Collective and it has made such a positive impact on my life and to others. Its unwavering dedication to the art of music and its positive impact on our community is truly praiseworthy. I’ve never seen so much growth from my playing skills from any other program, and I’m so grateful to be around such amazing musicians.”

—Jennifer R., violinist

“RMC is one of the most amazing programs I’ve been in. Many new students are coming through and making new friends. Our teachers have been working so hard to provide us instruments and many other things too. ”

—Daniel P., violinist

“The Raleigh Music Collective teachers are so amazing at what they do because they pick up on and develop social, emotional, and physical parts of a student. Through music learning, our refugee students get to grow in their holistic education, especially their social and physical skills. It not only helps them become better students, but better people.”

—Maggie B. at Refugee Hope Partners
