ifference One Note at a Time When Georgiana Howard was selected to attend a summer chamber music program in Europe, she knew the cost would be a potential barrier. She also knew she could gain support from her mentor Mary Griffin and from the Punch Family Foundation (PFF). Stamos Martin, like Geo
rgiana, was a Booker T. Washington high school student, and while he was excited about his acceptance to the Aspen Music Festival, he knew the $7,000 price tag would be a major hurdle. He called upon a small support team that included Gayle Punch of the Punch Family Foundation. Georgiana is now a s
ophomore student at Converse College in Spartanburg, South Carolina and aspires to attend the Harlaxton Music Festival (HMF) in Harlaxton, England. The $4,000 tuition does not include an additional $800 for airfare. On her own, Georgiana has managed to save $1,000 towards this trip. Unfortunately,
the HMF offers no scholarships. Georgiana, a violist, is a sophomore music business major and former student of the Young Strings Program of the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. Stamos and Georgiana each received $1,000 scholarships from the PFF to help with their music education -- scholarships they bo
th attest have made all the difference in their access and entry to these institutions. The experience of having a musician pursue a goal of being in a symphony orchestra taught PFF founder, Gayle Punch, many lessons. The greatest was the importance of giving back. In 2006, the Foundation was able
to give a $1,000 to Byron Martin who now studies the viola and music composition at an Oklahoma College. This year's challenge is to raise funds to assist music students like Stamos and Georgiana reach their potential. While most music programs offer scholarships, there are often additional costs wh
ich are not covered. These additional costs are often the prime roadblocks to economically limited minority students. "It's important to help as many music students as possible if we are to see diversity in the orchestral programs across America," says Richmond Punch. Richmond is a violist and viol
inist who donates proceeds from all CD sales to the foundation (these can be purchased at the foundation website). He also donates his services to the annual benefit recital. Contact: richmond@richmondpunch.com Also read the event I created with the location info and more specifics. Thanks!!
