Donny Allen was much more than a consultant, staff member, and member of the White Sabers Drum & Bugle Corps - he was a trusted friend, mentor, educator, and an irreplaceable part of our family. His passion for music, dedication to excellence, and unwavering commitment to helping others left a lasting impact on generations of performers and educators, both within the White Sabers and throughout the greater marching arts community.

Donny's contributions to the activity were extraordinary. As a member of the Drum Corps Hall of Fame and President of the Bugler's Hall of Fame, he devoted his life to preserving the rich tradition of drum corps while inspiring countless individuals through his work as a music arranger, educator, and mentor. His influence extended far beyond the rehearsal field, shaping lives through encouragement, leadership, and above all, a genuine love for the activity.

In collaboration with his family, The White Sabers have established the Donny Allen Scholarship Fund to honor his remarkable legacy. This scholarship will provide financial assistance to members who demonstrate need, helping to ensure that no deserving performer is unable to participate due to financial hardship. Every donation directly supports members of the White Sabers by helping offset the costs of membership, opening the doors to talented performers to experience the life-changing opportunities that drum corps provides.

Your donations are not only an honor to Donny's memory, they are an investment in young performers, the future of The White Sabers, and the future of drum corps.
