Whether you're a marketing guru, legal eagle, healthcare expert, creative artist, or just a passionate music enthusiast, our foundation welcomes your diverse skills and dedication.

Our activities are multifaceted, and even if you can spare just a few hours occasionally, your contribution can create a lasting impact.

Breaking barriers in the world of music is a collective effort, and you can play a significant role in nurturing talent.

Many music students and emerging professionals face daunting obstacles, from participating in master classes and international competitions to acquiring and maintaining instruments. For those from underprivileged backgrounds, these dreams can seem out of reach.

If you share our passion for empowering the next generation of artists, consider sponsoring a full or partial scholarship at the MiraTone Festival and Academy 2024.

In the world of culture, the income from events often falls short of covering their expenses.

We rely heavily on the support of grants, corporate partnerships, and private sponsors to bring our events to life. If you're inclined to contribute to the success of a concert or are considering to sponsor one, we invite you to get in touch.

As a token of our appreciation, we offer valuable media packages that prominently feature our sponsors' logos in both media and program books. Rest assured, the precise use of your funds is transparently communicated and subject to your approval.
