Your support makes it possible for Ravinia to spread our mission throughout Chicagoland, working with community leaders, the Chicago Public School system, and other school districts to put music back into under-resourced classrooms and communities with our Reach Teach Play programs.

As a direct supporter of these core programs in Ravinia’s mission and vision, you will receive donor benefits the same as with a gift to Ravinia’s Annual Fund. For more information about the benefits of each giving level, please read our downloadable benefits chart.
