In just three short years, The Plimpton Foundation has taken bold steps toward our mission of promoting diversity, inclusion, and excellence in the performing arts. We invite you to join us to be a part of a powerful and transformative endeavor. With a gift to our Fall Campaign, you can help in our goal of raising $20,000 for Native American youth before December 31. Though we are still a young foundation, our vision is bold: to build a lasting legacy of opportunity for Indigenous musicians. Together, we can ensure that financial barriers never silence talent or limit potential. We hope you will become a part of our legacy of belief and change!

We are so proud of the students we have supported so far. Seeing the difference these scholarships make in their lives affirms what we already know: the need for the work we do as a Foundation is immense. Across the country, Native American musicians face shrinking opportunities as Indian schools close and arts programs remain fragile. That is why it is so urgent that we expand our scholarships to reach students from tribes nationwide.

A gift to The Plimpton Foundation Scholarship Fund provides the next generation of Native musicians with the training, mentorship, and opportunities they need to thrive. Every contribution, no matter the size, directly shapes a student’s journey and shows your belief in their ability to share their music with the world.
