UBS is pleased to support another season of memorable music at the Ravinia Festival this summer. At its core, the Ravinia Festival is a collection of people who possess a steadfast dedication to their craft and whose tireless precision brings about the best performance possible. UBS is proud to be the Lead Sponsor of Ravinia, not just because we are fans, but because we share this common trait: a refusal to allow good enough to be good enough.

The firm's cultural sponsorships build upon our long history of supporting the arts around the globe. In addition to sponsoring the Ravinia Festival, which hosts the Grammy Award-winning Chicago Symphony Orchestra in its summer residency, the firm currently sponsors several outstanding orchestras and festivals nationally and abroad.

In addition, UBS strengthens relationships with local organizations, while focusing on education and creativity, through grants and volunteer initiatives. UBS partners with over 60 non-profit organizations in the Chicago area. Our philanthropic focus is on education and finding ways to engage students in after-school programs. Additionally, our employees volunteer their time and talent in a wide array of nonprofits throughout the region. Giving back is an important part of our culture at UBS as we believe the lasting success of the firm is linked to the well-being of the communities where we live and work.

On behalf of our firm, we hope you enjoy visiting Ravinia and experiencing some of the finest music Chicago has to offer.

Like mother, like daughter. Ravinia has always played a vital cultural role in the lives of June Pinsof and Madeleine Plonsker.

June has been supporting concerts in the Martin Theatre on an annual basis for the last decade, and Madeleine will be sponsoring her second consecutive Bennett Gordon Hall concert this summer. This year they added a new dimension to their giving by jointly helping to support Ravinia's participation in the Kartemquin Films production of "A Good Man," a film that will air this fall on American Masters about the creative process behind Bill T. Jones' Ravinia-commissioned Lincoln-themed dance piece, Fondly Do We Hope… Fervently Do We Pray. Both Madeleine and June feel that the unfading beauty of time is a well-fed musical mind.
