Donate

There are various expenses involved with the events, primarily, artists’ fees and their travel/accommodation expenses. We also need to book auditoriums or concert halls, which on occasions costs us. We raise funding for these concerts mainly through kind donations by faculty and staff, and by applying for financial grants given to student organizations by various associations such as The Former Student Association. 

It is to this end that we request for your financial support in promoting Indian Classical Music and Dance forms here at TAMU. Your contribution, however small, will be greatly helpful to us. In addition, we are also open to the proposals for funding an entire concert by donating $1500 or more – we will mention your name as a sponsor while publicizing that concert. Please let us know if you would like to contribute or discuss more – we would be happy to stop by your office.

Please note that we accept donations by checks, cash, or online. We will be happy to collect checks/cash from your office, or you can bring them with you when you attend our events.
