Music Teachers National Association

Why I Give to the Foundation


Pride in and duty to the profession of music teaching compels me to support my professional association, MTNA, in any way, large or small, that is within my capability.  Support for its programs may be given in a variety of ways: knowledge, skills, expertise, and time.

Support may also come in the form of monetary donations to the MTNA Foundation, whose programs nurture the creation, performance, study and teaching of music.  It seems to me that "giving back" to my profession is essential for it to reach its optimum potential.

MTNA Foundation Fellow Program

The Music Teachers National Association Foundation Fellow program offers a meaningful method for honoring deserving individuals while supporting the efforts of the MTNA Foundation Fund through a donation to the Foundation Fund in an individual’s name.

Each year new MTNA Fellows are recognized at the MTNA National Conference. Fellows receive a complimentary ticket to the Gala, an attractive MTNA Fellow certificate and pin. Also, new Fellows are prominently recognized on the Foundation Fund website and their names will appear on a plaque located at the MTNA National Headquarters. A press release will be sent to media outlets selected by the Fellow.

In the event that a Fellow is unable to attend the MTNA national conference, the certificate and pin will be sent to the Fellow from national headquarters and the local and/or state affiliate will be encouraged to recognize the Fellow.

If you have any questions about establishing an MTNA Fellow, please contact the MTNA Foundation Fund at (888) 512-5278 or mtnafoundation@mtna.org.

Fellows must be determined before contributions will be accepted by MTNA.
