We are very grateful to those who have chosen to donate to our organization to help sustain our mission. We appreciate that everyone has choices for their contributions and we are glad WIO is a recipient of your generosity. These donations have gone to providing musician scholarships, expanding our musical library, inviting special guests to join our programs, offering reduced or free performance tickets, outreach to places like San Camillus, and ensuring we maintain a fiscally healthy nonprofit business practice.​​​​​

In Memoriam
Roberta was a cellist and teacher who passed away on March 9, 2022. For decades she performed in local ensembles big and small including the Waukesha Symphony Orchestra, the Kettle Moraine Orchestra, and, most recently, the Wisconsin Intergenerational Orchestra (WIO) where she served as principal cellist. She also had an impressive career as a music educator, including 28 years in the New Berlin School District. Her students ranged in age from elementary to high school grade levels. She nurtured many of these students from 5th grade until they finished high school. Some of those students are now members of WIO.
Thank you to our many Individual donors, who are acknowledged in our concert programs.
