Support the Illinois Brass Band
Ticket sales account for less than half of IBB's annual budget. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Illinois Brass Band relies on government grants and corporate and individual supporters for financial assistance. Without these generous donations, IBB could not continue to recruit talented musicians or give quality performances throughout Illinois
There are many ways for you to support the Illinois Brass Band, either through direct monetary gift or providing services within your area of expertise. The three categories below are what is needed to sustain the band's mission. We want you to know where your donations will help us.
