The New World Symphony depends on you
Ticket sales provide
only 14% of the funds needed to present more than 60 concerts to
the community and train our 87 fellows each season. We rely
on you, and generous donors from around the country, to provide
almost half of the funds needed to keep NWS going.

Beyond concerts, your gift supports great music for generations to
come.
  
Whether you give as
an individual or through a foundation or corporation, your support
is crucial. Your gift helps launch the careers of talented
musicians from around the world and supports the magical performances
they bring to South Florida and beyond—and there are so many
ways to give.

Foundation Support
Support from the foundation community is crucial to the programs
and activities of the New World Symphony. Foundation grants
make possible our Kids in the Concert Halls series, community
engagement presentations in Miami-Dade schools, and Internet2
long-distance learning, among other programs. Gifts may
support NWS operating expenses or may be designated for particular
programs, projects, or funds. Please call David Sepulveda

Estate and Gift Planning
Our most devoted benefactors help guarantee the future of the New
World Symphony through bequests, trusts, charitable gift annuities,
and other planned gifts. Estate planning may provide lifetime
income, convert low-yielding assets into a higher income stream,
reduce or eliminate taxes on capital gains, generate a substantial
federal income tax deduction, and eliminate or reduce federal
estate taxes. Please contact Paul Woehrle at 305-673-3330
ext. 263 to learn more.
Tribute Gifts
Honor your loved ones and support NWS by making a tribute gift. Your
donation may commemorate special events such as birthdays, weddings,
and anniversaries. Tribute gifts are also a meaningful expression
of condolence and serve as an appropriate memorial for someone
who has passed away. You and the individual or family that
you designate will receive acknowledgment of the gift, which is
a tax-deductible contribution. Call the Development Department
at 305-673-3330 to discuss your tribute gift.
Friends Membership Program
Join Friends and be a part of a vibrant group of more than 800 music

Friends of the New World Symphony is a special membership group. With a contribution of $250 or more, members are invited to exclusive events at Miami and New York hot spots, featuring innovative, no-holds-barred performances by NWS fellows. Because Friends of New World is a membership group and the value of goods and services exceeds $250, there is not a tax deduction at the $250 level.
