The Foundation for Bluegrass Music

Establishing Your Bluegrass Legacy

It’s important to you to give back to the music and share the values and authentic qualities that are such an important part of your life.  Whether you’re passing it along to a new generation or supporting the music’s public performance or academic study, the Foundation can provide an appropriate structure to allow you to do just that.

Created in 2007, the Foundation for Bluegrass Music is a non-profit charitable organization (501c3) created to serve as an “umbrella” under which funds can be placed and disbursed to support educational, literary, artistic and historic preservation activities of public benefit.

Donations may be designated to create or sustain a particular program or may be unrestricted.  And by combining it with the gifts of others, the legacy of the music and your contribution grows and takes on even greater importance.  For example, thanks to one recent leadership gift, important programs to expose young people around the world to the music are benefitting and have a more sustainable future while providing important tax advantages to donors.

All gifts - no matter the size - are acknowledged and are tax deductible
as a charitable donation.* 

The Foundation will be managed by a board of five leaders who will help build and guide these efforts and create a proper repository for your gifts and donations to support important programs.
