Endowment Campaign - Billings Symphony

As we step into our 75th Anniversary Season, we invite you to join us in celebrating a legacy built over decades—and a future that’s brighter than ever. This year we are launching our 75th Season Endowment Campaign in the hope of securing that future. When you invest in the Billings Symphony, you are committed to enriching all lives through music and creating real impact in your community. The goal for our Endowment Campaign is $3 Million. Your donation to this goal will support the organization’s ongoing growth and build the future of the next 75 years, and beyond.

So far we've raised

This is around 10% of our goal. This began with 100% participation from board and staff, as well as participation from musicians of the orchestra and chorale. The amount also reflects the funds raised at our Diamond Jubilee Gala Pledge Auction, and six private donations.

"Legacy is not leaving something for people.

It's leaving something IN people." -Peter Strople

Where did this number come from?

This endowment will support the symphony's greatest priorities—our musicians, our programs, and our community outreach initiatives—ensuring that music remains accessible and impactful for years to come. $3 million would DOUBLE the current General Endowment Fund, the earnings of which are used to support the ongoing needs of the organization. This long-range strategy ensures that your Billings Symphony is around for future generations.
