In 1999, the S&FMA Endowment Fund was established to promote the Band's long-term preservation by providing reliable supplemental income to cover Band operational costs. Donations to the endowment help insure that the Band continues to have the opportunity to play the charitable, non-paying community venues that are the heart and soul of the S&FMA.

Currently, the efforts of the Endowment are focused on raising funds to send the Band to Ireland for the 2010 St. Patrick's Day Parade in Dublin. The Parade Committee has accepted the band's application to perform, but we need your help to get us there. The goal is to raise enough funds to defray the expenses of the trip for band members. It is a lofty goal, and we need your support.
