Support AYPO... simply by writing a letter!
 
AYPO collects many Letters of Support from our members and patrons, which we in turn use as evidence of community Hand typingsupport in our grant applications, promotional materials, etc.  We are currently collecting Letters of Support for this past concert season; if you would like to send AYPO a letter in support of our programs, please e-mail your letter to tazuma@aypo.org or mail to our office:  4026 Hummer Rd., Annandale, VA 22003.
 
Letters of Support often comment on the quality of AYPO's programs (e.g. how much you enjoyed one of our recent concerts, the musicianship of our members), how participating in our program influences the musical and personal development of our musicians, or the impact our work has on the community. Questions?  Please e-mail tazuma@aypo.org.  We thank you in advance for taking the time to help AYPO and its goals as an organization!
