Whitman Music Boosters

A volunteer parent organization supporting an amazing music program serving the Walt Whitman High School community in Bethesda, MD.

Support Us.

Running a top-quality program relies on generosity of parents, families, and our business community contributing to Whitman Music Boosters, to help cover expenses essential to strengthen our music program as well as the ability to host and provide special events and programs.

Our Whitman Music Boosters organization provides that vehicle to enhance the music experience at Whitman, augmenting what the school budget can provide. If every music family joins the Whitman Music Boosters, we can meet our fundraising goal of $25,000, to support the program’s immediate needs of audio technology upgrades for the classrooms, new music that challenges the students, and other offerings that provide a rich experience for all ensembles and the school.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the fall fundraising campaign so far! We are so appreciative. But we have more work to do. Please consider making your donation today, suggested at $125 or at whatever level feels right for you.
