Reasons to donate to Leon Friends of Music, Inc.

  • We have a significant number of students who cannot afford their chorus fees, but we do not want that to deter their participation!
  • We cannot purchase sheet music from student FEES. We spend well over $1200 PER CONCERT just for the sheet music.
  • With no assistance from LFM, Allstate and ACDA would be financially impossible.
  • Selling stuff is painful and time consuming.
  • Money donated to Leon Friends of Music is easily accessible – if there are last minute expenses that do not leave time for the LCS purchase card approval process, LFM is available instantly!
  • Purchasing is halted in June and July – LFM helps us make Summer Show purchases!

Pullen Scholarship Fund

The Dale Pullen Memorial Golf Tournament was established by the Pullen family to honor the memory of their son and raise money for college scholarships to Leon music students. The first STAR Award of $500 was given in 2000. The fund has grown to the current level of $5000 in scholarships annually! A $2000 STAR Award and between 5-7 $500 Pullen Scholarships are now given each year to outstanding Leon Choral students. This is a separate entityfrom Leon friends of Music donations.

Even though the Golf Tournament does not still exist, the Leon Chorus students will forever benefit each year from these scholarships, as the endowment will perpetually support the presentation of these scholarships. We are forever grateful to the Pullen family!
