Help Us Amplify the Magic of Music!

Music has the power to inspire, build confidence, bring people together, and open doors to possibilities that can last a lifetime. At the Encore Music Education Foundation, Inc. (EMEF), we believe every student should have the opportunity to discover that magic, regardless of their financial circumstances.

Through scholarships, financial assistance, instruments, educational resources, and support for music programs, EMEF helps provide music students and programs with the resources and opportunities they need to learn, grow, and thrive.

This year, you can help amplify the magic of music through three special fundraising initiatives!

1. Online Auction

Launching November 1, 2026

Explore a variety of auction items and place your bids to support EMEF’s mission. Every bid helps us raise funds to create more opportunities for music students and programs.

2. Peer-to-Peer Fundraising

3. December by Candlelight

December 20, 2026 | 6:00–8:00 PM
UCC Millis
142 Exchange Street, Millis, MA

Join us for December by Candlelight, a special concert benefiting the Encore Music Education Foundation, Inc. Enjoy an evening of music while helping support opportunities for music students and programs.

Help Us Invest in Our Performers

This year, we are also raising funds toward a new microphone pack system for our performers.

Our goal is to provide the Shure SLX-D+ system with Countryman B3 W5 microphones for 18 performers, at an estimated cost of $25,000. Our Phase 1 fundraising goal is $10,000 toward that investment.

The right equipment helps young musicians perform with confidence, share their talents with an audience, and continue developing their skills as artists. Your support can help provide our performers with the resources they need to learn, grow, and take the stage.

Every contribution helps amplify young voices and gives our performers the tools they need to be heard.

Celebrate the Music: Classic Album Release

Celebrate the music of our Encore community while supporting a great cause! Proceeds from sales of the Classic album benefit the Encore Music Education Foundation, Inc.

Listen to and purchase the album on Amazon Music.

Together, We Can Amplify the Magic of Music

Make a donation, create your own fundraising page, participate in the online auction, attend December by Candlelight, or support the Classic album release.

Every contribution helps create meaningful musical opportunities for students and programs that might not otherwise have access to them.

Thank you for supporting the Encore Music Education Foundation, Inc. and believing in the power of music!
