Donations of assets of all kinds (cash, stock, property, etc.) and all amounts may be received by the endowment and may also be beneficial to the contributor's estate or tax planning purposes. Please contact JSS Executive Director Jeremy Hommowun to discuss the available options.

Busche-Hendrickson Legacy Society

Membership Levels

Partners: $10,000 or more
Patrons: $50,000 or more
If acceptable to the donor, membership in the Busche- Hendrickson Legacy Society will be announced at a subsequent concert, included in future concert programs, and listed on the JSS website and social media.
