Beyond the Donation Form
Other ways to give.
Legacy & planned giving
Include the Foundation in your estate planning and help ensure that the studio remains a resource for artists decades from now.
In-kind donations
Instruments, amplifiers, microphones, outboard gear, and cables in working order are always welcome — and will be put directly to use.
Employer matching
Many employers match charitable donations dollar-for-dollar. Check with your HR team after giving — it's often the single easiest way to double your gift.
Other Ways to Help
Not every contribution is a check.
Volunteer
Help with events, outreach, administration, or hands-on studio support. If you have time and care about this work, we'll find a place for you.
Partner with us
Schools, music nonprofits, community groups, and local businesses can extend the reach of our programs. Let's talk about what's possible together.
Mentor
Engineers, musicians, and industry professionals who believe in passing the craft forward are always welcome to contribute time and expertise.
Spread the word
Tell a musician who needs us. Share the Foundation with your community. A listener you reach today might be a record we make tomorrow.
Transparency
Our nonprofit status.
The Electrical Audio Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization. Contributions are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Our EIN and most recent Form 990 are available on request — please contact us and we'll send them along.
