Donations to CMBC

The financial health of CMBC depends heavily on your generous contribution. We are a 501(c) Nonprofit organization, and any amount of donation can be considered a charitable contribution and will be very much appreciated. CMBC manages funds donated to the program in order to support Castillero Middle School's music programs, including the acquisition of music, instruments, and accessories, hiring accompanists and mentors, and paying for instrument repairs. Donations can be to CMBC in general or to the individual band, choir, and/or orchestra programs.

If making a donation, please check to see if your company has a Corporate Matching Program which will match all or a portion of your donation. This way you can maximize your donations to CMBC! You can see if CMBC is part of your company's matchable organizations by looking up our non-profit information:

Castillero Music Booster Club (may be referred to as the Castillero Vocal Booster Club, its prior name)

Tax ID No. 770231151

If donating to a specific program (band, choir, or orchestra) through your company, please specify which program and instructor the donation is going to, so it gets directed to the correct program.

If there is no matching program, you can donate directly via our CMBC page here:

CMBC Fundraisers

CMBC Fundraisers lower the cost of trips and performances outside of our school campus for students and offers scholarships to students that cannot afford such activities. Funds raised by CMBC also help to support and cover music program costs, including the hiring of mentors and accompanists, acquisition of music, instruments and accessories, and paying for instrument repairs.

Your program representatives will also hold fundraisers specifically for the band, choir and orchestra programs.
