The Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our mission is to enrich lives through music, but we can’t do it without your support.
Individual Giving:
Your personal, tax deductible donation makes a significant difference in the programming the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra is able to offer. Ticket sales only cover a small portion of our costs, so we rely on generous donors, sponsorship, and grants to pay for our programming and operational expenses.
Tallahassee is extremely fortunate to house an orchestra of exceptional, professional quality. Thanks in large part to Florida State University and its outstanding faculty, as well as very talented community musicians, the Tallahassee Symphony Orchestra brings an extremely high caliber orchestral experience to the area. We are committed to matching this excellence in performance with excellence in community engagement and education, and we are proud to be an integral part of Tallahassee’s civic life. Our contributions to the community at large are easily measured in terms of numbers – we draw tourists, create jobs, help attract new industry, and enhance students’ intellectual growth. Additionally, the TSO also produces several intangible rewards, such as our patrons’ sense of shared experience and community pride. Through their generous contributions, donors like you help fulfill our mission of serving the public.
When you make a gift to the TSO, you can be assured that is will be spent wisely and put to use for the good of our community. Each season, the TSO depends on gifts to support almost half of its operating budget.
Opportunities for giving to the TSO are many and varied:
- Annual cash gifts

- TSO Kids
- Annual stock or securities
- Estate planning
- Support of various guest artists and/or concerts
