Our Giving Circles - our donor family
Whatever the shape or size, your support makes a difference.
The importance of our giving community is to be valued and congratulated. You are truly making a difference to what you see on stage – together, we are achieving remarkable things.
We are proud to acknowledge our donor family, many of whom give to multiple areas and some of whom wish to remain unnamed. Your commitment is a source of constant inspiration for us.
Your generosity is sustaining your Orchestra now and into the future – West Australian Symphony Orchestra belongs to the Western Australian community.
Thank you – we cannot do it without you.
