WBDI Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Micro-Grants are given annually to promote diversity and inclusion in K-12 schools and community bands. The grants provide financial assistance for selected band programs to pursue and actively engage in diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Projects may include updating music libraries with works by women and BIPOC composers, bringing in underrepresented directors or composers, and other projects that help underrepresented students and/or programs.
 

Grant Considerations:

• Financial Need

  • The applicants must serve as directors at K-12 schools or of community bands that demonstrate financial need.

• Membership

  • All applicants must be current members of Women Band Directors International.
