As you know I am a part of the San Diego Civic Youth Orchestra and in June we have the opportunity to perform at Carnegie Hall in New York City.

This opportunity is a huge honor.  Carnigie Hall is known for setting the international standards for musical excellence and has housed many of the world's finest artists.  Throughout the years, Carnegie has become a lighthouse to all musicians to achieve.

Civic Youth Orchestra has been selected as one of four to perform in June, 2024.  We need to raise $125,000 as a group, in order to make this trip.  Each member has pledged to raise $2500 and I am hopeful that you can help.  Please consider donating to this opportunity of a lifetime, and help us get to the Carnegie stage in New York.

Sincerly,

Bjorn Hellum
