As our Big Bass Drum campaign comes to a close, we would like to thank you for your tremendous support! We quickly met our original goal of $10,000 and the support didn’t stop there! We were able to reach our stretch goal of $25,000 in only 28 days. Because of you, Purdue Bands & Orchestras will now establish an endowment that will generate funding to last a lifetime. Creating an endowment will ensure the drum receives proper maintenance annually, plus help benefit a crew member with a modest scholarship. Thank you so much for your help and support in keeping the Big Bass Drum “beating” at Purdue University!
Thank you for your continued support. Keep the momentum going by sharing our message! $25,000 is the minimum amount to start an endowment at Purdue. With this stretch goal, we could ensure the monetary longevity of the drum forever. Help us reach this goal today!
Thanks so much for your support during the first week of our campaign! Continue to share and promote our message today!
