Donations

Invest in young futures

Why give

Making a gift to Esther Dalton Foundation will not only help to make this musical art form more accessible, but you will be contributing to a steelpan culture that supports the audacity of young imaginations for the instrument.

No matter where you choose to support our work, you will help us create new possibilities for young people as we:

  • Contribute to their leadership development;
  • Foster their growth in music literacy and skill;
  • Provide assistance to individuals and institutions engaged in the development of steelpan musicians;
  • Contribute to the development of initiatives that embrace the future of the instrument and its instruction.
