Collaborative Fund-raising For several years, the Monmouth Symphony Orchestra has worked with local charities for mutual benefit. Ticket Giveaway The MSO is pleased to give away tickets to local non-profit and charitable organizations for their use in fund-raisers. If you have an upcoming charitable event and would like to receive donated tickets, please let us know. The Shared Visions Program The Shared Visions Program is a cooperative program designed to raise funds for both the symphony and a charitable organization. In this program, the organization sells tickets to individual MSO concerts and keeps half the sales proceeds. In the past several years, the Monmouth County Chapter of Girl Scouts, the First Presbyterian Church of Red Bank at Tower Hill, and Holy Spirit Church of Asbury Park have significantly benefited from this program. In May 2000, the MSO performed at the Great Auditorium in Ocean Grove to benefit the Citizens for Wesley Lake, a non-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing the area between Asbury Park and Ocean Grove. Over three thousand dollars was raised for the Citizens for Wesley Lake at that concert. To participate in the Shared Visions program, the charitable organization is given a block of tickets to sell for a specific concert. There is no minimum number of tickets the organization must sell. The orchestra provides accounting forms and publicity such as flyers and posters specific to the organization's needs. Contact Us!
