support us!

The Millbrook High School Band program includes about 130 students who participate in band classes and extracurricular activities. Running an organization of this size with so many activities takes a lot of resources, volunteer hours and support from the community.  Parents cover most of the costs of activities with fair-share payments. In order to keep costs as low as possible, we look to local businesses and members of the community for assistance. We appreciate everyone who helps keep this band program going - we could not do this without you!  Please see below for ways that you can support us!

Please consider a direct donation to the Millbrook Band Boosters -- all proceeds go directly to support the greatest areas of need for the band program, including general operations, new equipment purchases…and everything in between!
