Young Audiences of Abilene
Our Generous Donors
As a not-for-profit arts education organization, Young Audiences of Abilene (YAA) relies on the generosity of our donors to help fund compelling live performances and inspiring hands-on workshops and residencies in schools throughout Abilene and surrounding areas. YAA program sales cover only 50% of the organization’s operating expenses, which means we must raise money each year to ensure that the programs students love are here to inspire their dreams and engage their minds.
A special thanks to our donors:
