For this Giving Tuesday, we have enlisted the help of our distinguished alumni from around the globe to describe in their own words the immersive, intensive, and transformative experience of a Heifetz summer, and the impact the Institute has had on their careers and their lives. Check out their messages in the video below and please consider a giving Tuesday gift today to make the unique Heifetz experience possible for a deserving student next summer!

Our 2024 class was arguably the most outstanding group of students we have ever enrolled, the beneficiaries of a record $328,000 in scholarship support. The reputation of the Institute continues to flourish and grow, and applications are already beginning to come in for the 2025 Summer Program.

But this dedication to teaching excellence and community service comes at a rising cost—and we need your help to meet it!

We remain as committed as ever to our network of young musicians, faculty, and audiences in the face of an anticipated 40% increase in expenses from the rising costs of facilities, food, and housing. Our goal remains to award more than $300,000 in scholarships, and to expand access to world-class music to everyone in our community—we rely on our family of supporters now more than ever to ensure we not only maintain, but exceed, the high standard we have set.

Will you support the Heifetz Institute with a tax-deductible donation and help us end the year on a high note? Your contribution will ensure that this timeless music inspires our students, enriches our community, and builds a more harmonious world for all.
