Today is the Day! https://fundraise.givesmart.com/vf/Give2NEIU/MusicDance

The NEIU Department of Music and Dance believes in creating equitable access to music and dance opportunities for our students. Every $1,500 that we raise means that we can offer an additional scholarship for a new or returning student, but every little bit counts. When your donation is pooled with the support of our NEIU Music and Dance community across Chicago and around the world, we make higher education more accessible for deserving students.

Your gift to the Department of Music and Dance pays dividends! Not only do you support our current students, but you also invest in the students that our music educators reach, the audience members our music performances impact, and the communities that are enriched by the artistic contributions of our students.

Join us in this global day of giving to make possible the activities and opportunities that we hold most dear.
