Help Fordham musicians perfect their art! Every spring Fordham attracts aspiring vocalists and instrumentalists to the musical capital of the world. They seek to make NYC their campus and their stage. Whether they are a classical pianist, jazz drummer, or Broadway diva, the Music Department connects them with outstanding performer-teachers who coach and mentor them one-on-one in a full semester of individual lessons. But we need your help to realize the dreams of all our students who, though rich in talent and determination, lack the financial resources to pay for this life-changing opportunity.
By supporting music lessons you support excellence far beyond music. Musical training cultivates creativity, discipline, organization, polish, and poise. Scholarship winners go onto careers as professional musicians. And – in the best Fordham tradition of being men and women for others – they also use their skills to become teachers, physicians, and lawyers, who graduate from the nation’s leading institutions.
Even a small gift makes a big difference!
