How you can support the Footscray-Yarraville City Band

Come and listen

The easiest way for you to support the band is to come along to our next performance! It is fantastic to have an appreciative audience.

Volunteer to help out

Volunteer to help out - it is a big help when people can contribute either in the band room (in the library, band room maintenance), or when we're out doing performances (compere, set up, transport, front of house, etc).

Make a donation

To make a donation, you can

  • Mail us a cheque
  • Remember us in your will
  • Contact us for specific arrangements

    • All donations are gratefully accepted. Some of our biggest costs are keeping our library of music up to date, and keeping our stock of musical instruments in good condition.

  • Between $50 and $150 can buy a new piece of music for the whole band.
  • $300 can pay for an overhaul of an instrument.
  • Between $1500 (cornet) - $10000 (tuba) can buy a new instrument for the band.

    • If you would like to make a donation for a specific purpose, we can arrange for suitable acknowledgements to be made, for example in the program at performances, or a plaque or engraving on an instrument.
