Become a Bravo GEM
At Bravo Waukegan, we believe small, steady acts of generosity can spark big, lasting change. That’s why we’re launching our Bravo GEM (Give Every Month) program—an easy and powerful way for you to support music education all year long.
By joining this growing community of monthly supporters, you’re helping children in Waukegan schools learn, grow, and thrive through music.
Why Monthly Giving Matters
When you become a Bravo GEM, you provide a reliable stream of income that allows us to plan ahead and respond quickly to student’s needs. Your recurring gift—no matter the amount—helps:
- Provide Instruments: So a child can take their music home, practice, and progress.
- Support Teachers: Ensuring we can fund passionate educators and guest artists.
- Send Students to Specialist Camps: Offering scholarships for summer music camps and conferences that build skills and confidence.
- Support our growing Bravo Buddies Summer Program: We have seen a 74% growth in numbers in the last two years alone.
- Keep the Music Going: Covering music books, repairs, and other behind-the-scenes essentials.

How It Works
- Set Up Your Donation: Choose a meaningful monthly amount that works for your budget
- Set It and Forget It: Your gift is processed automatically each month—easy and hassle-free.
- See Your Impact: We’ll send you updates, photos, and stories so you can see the difference you’re making.
