Donate to support Swan Songs Portland's Musical Last Wishes Concerts

$5000 Year End Matching Challenge!

A Swan Songs Portland supporter has donated $5,000 to keep our mission going strong – and challenged our community to match this generous gift to raise a total of $10,000 by December 31.

Please consider making a tax-deductible contribution to this Year End Challenge today – to help Swan Songs Portland bring free end-of-life concerts to more of our neighbors and provide crucial income to the local musicians performing these very special shows.

And, starting on December 16th, if you're the first to contribute $250 or more, you will receive a pair of tickets to the fabulous 2025 Portland’s Folk Festival –– kindly donated by the festival's organizers –– with a choice to attend on either Friday, January 17, or Saturday, January 18. So don't delay! 

Swan Songs creates a sense of connection for individuals near the end of life by gifting them private concerts and supports live music in a community by compensating artists for the concerts.

These intimate "musical last wishes" concerts are held in healthcare facilities or private homes, and are often attended by family, loved ones, and caregivers. Swan Songs maximizes the impact of the concerts by engaging musicians who match each recipient's favorite style of music, songs, or instruments.  From opera to Mariachi, bluegrass to the blues, each concert is unique and deeply meaningful for everyone present.

Your generous tax-deductable donation will support our mission to provide these concerts to recipients and compensate the professional musicians who perform.
