Student Scholarship Sponsor

Supporting students studying music is an integral part of our mission. Students have the opportunity to participate in the orchestra, apply for scholarship awards, and attend all concerts for free. In 2005, Naples Community Orchestra, then Naples Orchestra & Chorus, created the Ralph Stewart Student Scholarship Program to recognize a graduating high school student who had participated in the orchestra or chorus with a $1,000.00 scholarship to use for their future education. Since then, the program has been modified to recognize graduating college seniors. Students must submit an application form and a letter from their music teacher or Guidance Counsellor to attest to the student’s accomplishments.
