Ticket sales, individual/corporate donations, and grants from various sources comprise the funds utilized by the symphony to present each season of wonderful concerts. The KVSO Foundation was created as a separate endowment fund to ensure that the Kankakee Valley Symphony Orchestra be supported beyond its annual operating budget and fundraising efforts.
Its purpose is to build a base fund by encouraging and managing endowment funds and gifts. From the earnings of this fund, contributions are made annually to the KVSO Association to assist in keeping our civic treasure alive and flourishing.
Gifts of all sizes may take various forms, but are not limited to:
- Direct Gift
- Annual Pledge
- Gift of Property
- Gift of Stock
- Planned Giving / Bequest
- Memorial / Recognition
