How We Use Your Donations:

We are a performing arts non-profit, which means we rely on contributions to succeed!

All contributions go to the basic functions and expenses of the organization, including:

• Paying our performers - Heartland Marimba musicians are paid fairly for their work.

• Local Community Outreach - Helping us travel to local schools and perform for and teach students of all ages!

• Commissioning projects - Helping us continue to diversify the marimba repertoire.

• Gasoline and lodging costs - HMQ travels all over the country with their equipment!

• Domestic plane tickets - Our high level of artistry requires the highest level players from around the country.

HM has produced more than 200 concerts in more than 50 cities since 2014. Thousands of children have experienced educational presentations by HM groups, more than 20 composers have written for HM groups, and at least 30 young artists have been employed by the HMEnsemble. We are focused on the future of the marimba art form. We hope you will join us along the way with your support!
