17 Campers were helped by the Staff Scholarship Fund during NMC 2007!!!
This program is unique among music camps. In 1995 we established the Staff Scholarship Fund to assist campers who, due to financial constraints, would not have the opportunity to come to camp. Each year we provide from 10% to 100% of the camp fee to upwards of 15 campers. Since its inception, we have raised over $80 000, having funded more than 100 campers. Several of our recipients have been able to go on to study music and return to camp as staff members. We are excited and proud of our achievements in this area. Monies for the Fund are raised through activities at camp (Personal Assistant for a Day, Pie in the Face Auction, for example) created and run by the staff, by voluntary faculty and staff donations from their camp honorarium (several staff donate all of their honorarium) and by donations received at our Tea and Symphony concerts. The Fund is administered entirely by staff volunteers, coordinated by Sharon Little, the Staff Coordinator.
