Cascade School of Music receives grant

Cascade School of Music is the recipient of a $5,000 Community Grant from the Todd & Lorri Taylor Fund of The Oregon Community Foundation to expand fundraising capacity through the Director of Development position.

“The Taylors have been key supporters of the school for many years now,” stated Executive Director Dillon Schneider. “In addition to supporting the school through their advised funds with the Oregon Community Foundation, Todd and Lorrie built our parking lot to make it ADA compliant, saving the school thousands of dollars and making it accessible to all of our students.”

The mission of Cascade School of Music is to build community through music by offering a continuum of exceptional music education programs and community performances for students of all ages, skill levels and socio-economic backgrounds, thereby contributing to the transformation of lives and enrichment of the culture, diversity and quality of life in Central Oregon.

The mission of The Oregon Community Foundation is to improve life in Oregon and to promote effective philanthropy. OCF works with individuals, families, businesses and organizations to create charitable funds to support the community causes they care about. Through these funds OCF awards more than $60 million annually in grants and scholarships.
