Your support helps us impact the lives of hundreds of students in Santa Monica and the westside of Los Angeles.

Elemental Music is a 501c3 nonprofit organization. Our EIN is 27-3274582.

Donations, sponsorships, volunteering, and more can contribute to making music a part of a child’s life. There are many ways to participate and support our efforts.

donate

Give the gift of music to our students in any amount. Give once, or better yet, set up a recurring donation and have your impact felt year round!

Donor-Advised Funds

Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs) are investment accounts for the sole purpose of supporting charitable organizations today. This tool automatically links with your DAF, allows you to recommend how you’d like your gift to be used and notifies Elemental Music of your intentions.  Using the link below to grant from your DAF also saves us a lot of time, so thank you! It’s a great way to ensure consistent financial support while saving cash for immediate needs.

Stock donations

Donating stocks allows you to avoid capital gains tax and often take a charitable deduction for the full value of the asset. Use our tool to donate stock so we can track your gift, send you the correct receipt, and ensure you can get the tax savings you deserve. If you would prefer to make your donation through your broker, access our transfer information from the link below to notify Elemental Music of your gift.

Qualified Charitable Distributions

If you are 70.5 or older, giving from your IRA can help reduce your taxable income — and for those over 73 who must take a Required Minimum Distribution (RMD), an IRA gift is a simple way to fulfill it! By using the link below to give from your IRA, you can auto-complete your paperwork and we can track your gift to send you the proper tax receipts.

corporate matching

Do you work for an amazing company that matches donations? We’ll be happy to take care of the paperwork. Please contact us for more information.
