Detroit Youth Volume provides the same high-quality arts education to all of our students - whether they pay tuition or depend on a full scholarship. The more support we receive from our community, the more students we are able to serve.

​​We rely on a base of individual donors, grant-providers and annual fundraisers to support the work of our organization. All donations are tax deductible​ and should be addressed to our fiscal sponsor Allied Media Projects. 

A donation of $1,000 will provide one student with a year of Suzuki education: 30 weekly Private Lesson at $20 each and 30 weekly Group Classes at $10 each. A $1,000 scholarship for one child breaks down to $84 per month. If you would like to become a Sustaining Donor, you can choose this amount to auto-give monthly. The extra $100 is put toward the following, provided free-of-charge to our full-scholarship students:

  • private & group lessons in Detroit Symphony Orchestra's education wing at 3711 Woodward Ave 48201 where DYV is a tenet
  • quality instruments, rosin, strings, shoulder rests, music stands
  • music books & Suzuki recordings
  • transportation support 
  • performance outfits
  • healthy snacks
  • free tickets to local classical performances
  • summer violin camp
  • workshops with Detroit musicians as guest instructors
  • community performance opportunities & solo recital​
  • administrative support provided by a part-time Director
