We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission and programs · 2024

• An Unparalleled Music Program for Kids of All AgesNearly 150 musicians, ages seven to 22, are currently members of Youth Orchestra of Palm Beach County (YOPBC). For 30 years, YOPBC has funneled its young musicians into one of four orchestras: Training for beginning strings only String for intermediate-level strings musicians Symphony for advanced intermediate full orchestra (all instruments) Philharmonic for the most advanced full orchestra members who wish play professional-level repertoireAuditions are required for all potential musicians. Auditions determine which orchestra a child is placed in. YOPBC also offers musicians who wish to and who are qualified to play chamber music in addition to YOPBCs standard repertoire. YOPBC has five YOPBC chamber ensembles (string, woodwind, saxophone, brass, and percussion). These chamber ensembles perform at all YOPBC concerts. Rehearsals are held for all orchestras and chamber ensembles at staggered times on Sunday afternoons from August to May each season. Our rehearsal venue is at the Don Estridge High Tech Middle School in Boca Raton. We Proudly IntroduceThe 2024-25 season will be introducing an important restructuring of its orchestras. Thanks to a grant of $100K from Impact 100 Palm Beach County, YOPBC will be replacing its Training Orchestra with a 100% free beginners orchestra that is modeled after the highly regarded El Sistema free orchestra program. Children will no longer need to audition for this beginners orchestra. This restructuring has been designed to provide those children from low-to-moderate income households with access to free music instruction, rehearsals, and performing opportunities. The program has been named, Equity in the Arts Music for All. Those children who wish to join this new beginners orchestra but who do not come from low-to-moderate income households are invited to join at a modest fee. YOPBC is proud of its decision to make its program even more equitable than it already was. Esteemed FacultyA large part of what makes YOPBC programs so successful is the highly qualified staff of credentialed music educators who teach, conduct, and truly understand how to enliven young minds with hands-on learning through music.In addition, YOPBC, offers other wonderful opportunities for kids:Summer Camp - YOPBCs Summer Music Day Camp is completely unique because our camp gives kids MUSIC and MORE! We stand out because we teach ALL instruments AND because we accept beginning students on most instruments. Unlike most music camps, we provide a fun schedule of varied day camp activities in addition to musicactivities such as organized sports, arts and crafts, private lessons, guest artist performances, as well as field trips to local attractions, and as you would expect, lots of music! In addition, we offer late pickup and carpool assistance. At camp we also have elective classes that include Music Technology, All State Boot Camp, Music Theory the Fun Way, Conducting and much more! Within the camp structure, is our very popular Learn to Play program for beginners. Learn to Play is perfect for students who want to start a second instrument, or for students who want to try a different instrument without the pressure or commitment of learning during the regular school year. The Learn to Play program includes a FREE instrument loaner. We believe we have a program for every student at every level beginning, intermediate and advanced.Mentorship Program with The Symphonia - This exciting program partners advanced student musicians from YOPBCs Philharmonic Orchestra with professional musicians from The Symphonia, South Floridas premier professional chamber orchestra. This program is called The Symphonia/YOPBC Mentoring Initiative. Student musicians learn alongside Symphonia musicians and culminate the season by performing with their mentors as part of a free side-by-side concert for the community. Mini Mozart Program - for children ages five through eight who have never studied any musical instrument. Mini Mozart sessions are offered in venues through the county. The children who enroll in Mini Mozart are in line to become future members of YOPBC. Who We ServeSince its inception, YOPBC has welcomed children from all socio-economic groups, with approximately 15 percent of the children from low-to-moderate income households. Believing that music education should be available to all, YOPBC provides merit and need-based scholarships. No child has ever been turned away from YOPBC because of the inability to pay.LeadershipOur Board of Directors and artistic staff are committed to ensuring that YOPBC remains a relevant and vibrant organization that serves the entire community. We depend on donations, sponsorships, and grant funding to support our daily operation. Our board members and parents volunteer to make the organization run smoothly.

Officers and directors · 2024

As listed in Part VII of the 2024 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
