We need your help! Make an impact today on our artistic, cultural, and educational landscape. As a 501c3 non-profit, your donation to The Naperville Winds is fully tax deductible.  

The Naperville Winds believe music transcends boundaries and touches the hearts of people from all walks of life.  Although the ensemble is only in its third season of existence, we’re proud of our impact:

• Enriched the lives of our 1100+ average annual audience members at Naperville’s Wentz Hall as well as those listening to albums on Apple Music and other streaming platforms
• Supported the education of socioeconomically-marginalized high school student music ensembles by enabling them to perform for a large concert audience in a world-class venue 
• Provided rehearsal & performance experiences that fostered a culture of excellence amongst our 75+ unpaid musician members
• Achieved recognition from the City of Naperville as a grant recipient from the city’s Special Events & Cultural Amenities Commission

Our financial expenses include:

• Performance & rehearsal venue rental fees for Naperville’s Wentz Hall
• Recording & production fees that help us produce albums to deliver our performances to a wider audience
• Music & instrument rentals used in our performances

While we do sell tickets to our performances, tickets sales do not fully cover our expenses, so your donation will enable us to:

1. Organize High-Quality Concerts: Your support will help us create exceptional musical experiences that resonate with our audiences and showcase the talent of our ensemble members.
2. Support Music Education: By helping us support K-12 music education, you will contribute to nurturing the next generation of musicians and helping them discover & build their artistic dreams.
3. Promote Local Culture: Your sponsorship will play a pivotal role in continuing to build a vibrant local community connected by a diverse choice of events & activities.
