BAND BOOSTER VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTION
The West Potomac Band Patrons Organization works to cover the part of our band’s budget that isn’t met by FCPS.
In addition to $35,000 in group fundraising, this year’s budget counts on an average voluntary contribution of $50.

If you’d like a lot more information, come to a boosters meeting! We’d love to have you.
To make that average voluntary contribution of $50 click on the button below. (Think $50 isn’t nearly enough for the amazing experience of West Po Band, and want to give more? We understand. In that case, go to the donate page, read about “levels of giving” and click the donate button there instead.)
Remember that because WPBPO is a 501c3 corporation, your contribution is tax-deductible! As you think about where to put your charitable dollars, we hope you’ll keep in mind that our community’s young musicians are a worthy cause.
