support
We're making an impact, thanks to continued support & generosity from YOU, the Omaha community.
here are just a few of the ways you can help us to actualize our mission:
-
Support our Mission
OGR commits to providing at least 50% of our programming free or at a reduced rate so we are accessible to everyone. Your financial support allows us to provide a safe space for youth to find their voice, develop their self-confidence and creative expression. Thank you for supporting the work that we do in the Omaha-Metro.
-
Volunteer
Our volunteers are the heartbeat of our organization. We would not be who we are without the community of leaders, artists, teachers who lend their talents to our programs. Become a part of our community today! There are so many ways to help during summer camps and year round. Please join us!
*ALL IDENTITIES ARE WELCOME!
-
Donate your gear
We're looking for your lightly used musical equipment! OGR participants use our gear year-round and the upkeep of instruments for 50 artists each camp session and instrument instruction session takes its toll! If you have gear you are looking to re-home, smash the button below to email us regarding your donation.
-
Rock OGR Merch
Your purchase of OGR merch is the chic way to support our mission and start conversation in the community. Look good + Feel great + Raise awareness of OGR. . . win, win, WIN. Lots of sizing options available from youth (baby, toddler, child) to adult! Great gift idea for your loved ones!
-
Attend Our Events
Showing up is perhaps the best way you can show our youth artists that their voices matter. Attend our showcases, events and workshops to cheer them on. There’s so much to learn from what they have to say. Listen! Rock out, be inspired and spread the joy!
THANK YOU oGR SUPPORTERS!
The story of OGR has always included our community. We could not do what we do without the foundations, corporations, individuals and families that continuously show their support. We are grateful to our partners and supporters for making it all possible.
