SSO MISSION STATEMENT

The Southland Symphony Orchestra uses the power of music to lift the human spirit. We engage, uplift, and educate the diverse communities of Southern California’s Greater Ontario and Inland Empire area by coming together to perform and inspire through exceptional musical experiences.

VISION STATEMENT

Reaching out through the transformative power of live music, the Southland Symphony Orchestra will be a civic leader, reflecting and uniting our region.

INCLUSIVENESS AND DIVERSITY

In keeping with its mission, the Southland Symphony Orchestra and Chorus welcomes ALL people from the greater Ontario area and surrounding communities by playing and presenting the world’s greatest music by and for everyone: From preschool music education for the underserved to adult music education, from a holiday event for all to music presentations for seniors, but most of all through the performance of great music by artistically-outstanding musicians from the community, SSO is a unique artistic resource with a focus always on excellence.

That excellence is always compatible with inclusiveness.

Why do we need YOUR support?

The Southland Symphony Orchestra relies significantly on the generosity of individuals, businesses, foundations and government entities. While “concert door donations” are of tremendous help, they cover less than one-third of the Orchestra's operating budget. Your support will help the organization achieve a balanced budget each year.

Every great city deserves a great orchestra, and as one of Ontario's key new cultural treasures, it is critical that the SSO continues to provide the community with its core group of world-class musicians. The SSO provides audiences of all ages with high quality artistic performances, while bringing internationally renowned guest artists to the Inland Empire. In addition, the Orchestra is looking to the future, planning to serve more than 10,000+ students annually through inspirational and educational programs and outreach initiatives.

You can make a difference today by supporting the Southland Symphony Orchestra with a gift of any size. We invite you to make a tax-deductible donation which will help to sustain the SSO as YOUR Orchestra, while enhancing the Orchestra's impact through critical arts education offerings for area youth.

The Southland Symphony Orchestra is a tax exempt 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization under IRS section 170. Donors can deduct contributions made to us under IRC Section 170. We are also qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, devises, transfers or gifts under Section 2055, 2106, or 2522. We are a public charity.

SPECIAL BONUS - for those who give a gift of $25 or more, and who request it, Dr. Sylvia Lee Mann will send a set of PDF music (score and parts) to her special arrangement of "Come Ye Thankful People - Gather at the River". Just make a comment with your donation to receive the PDF sheet music files. Here is a video of the piece, as performed by Dr. Mann:
