Fundraising.htm

The Millikan Orch-a-Band conducts fundraising activities to support the General Orch-a-Band Fund and to help students to raise money for their trip and activity expenses. Each fundraiser is designated for a specific purpose when it is approved.

The General Fund is used to support the Millikan High School Instrumental Music Department for needs beyond the school budget. We pay for music coaches, provide student scholarships, and purchase equipment for use by the Instrumental Music Department, in addition to sponsoring parties and hosting the Annual Awards Banquet. Profit from the Student Accounts fundraisers is credited to the individual accounts of each student maintained by the OAB Financial Secretary and Treasurer. These funds are available to cover student trip expenses and approved Music Department student expenses such as the annual Awards Banquet.
