Supporting Hartt
The Hartt School relies on generous contributions from its alumni, parents, friends, foundations, and corporations to support its dynamic mission of providing the highest level of professional training in the performing arts and related professions. There are a variety of ways to support Hartt's broad range of educational and performance activities and your gift will help maintain The Hartt School as a center of artistic distinction.
Annual Fund
The Hartt School's Annual Fund program supports and maintains those resources at the core of the Hartt experience: its talented students, distinguished faculty, and important facilities. Gifts to The Hartt School's Annual Fund help bridge the gap between tuition revenue and operating expenses, and helps Hartt provide outstanding training for students of all ages.

Planned Giving
The Hartt School is grateful to its many alumni and friends who have chosen to support its programs through planned or deferred gifts, such as bequests, trusts, and gift annuities. Including a charitable provision for Hartt in your estate can ensure the future financial well-being of your heirs. With consultation from the appropriate professional advisors, a planned gift can produce significant tax savings for your estate, lifetime income payments for you and your heirs, and a lasting legacy of your generosity at Hartt.

Other Giving Opportunities
Many of Hartt's friends and alumni have established named funds, either endowed or temporary funds, to support of a wide variety of programs and initiatives. Funding priorities have included student scholarships, library acquisitions, capital improvements, and instrument purchases. Scholarship funds have been of particular interest, allowing Hartt to award nearly $200,000 in named scholarships to its students every year.
