INVESTING IN YOUR VISION Mary Ann and Larry, we invite you to join our efforts to preserve and maintain the musical excellence that comes from UNT music students each year. Because of your passion for encouraging young adults to challenge themselves and exceed their dreams, we respectfully request a $60,000 gift to establish The Mary Ann & Larry L. Klein Endowed Music Scholarship Once fully funded, The Mary Ann and Larry L. Klein Endowed Music Scholarship will fuel and nurture the artistry, creativity, scholarship and professional competence our students require to suceed in this industry today. In addition to supporting our talented students during their educational journey, your gift will further benefit the UNT College of Music by: • Enhancing recruitment and retention of high-caliber students. • Improving national rankings. • Increasing philanthropy by way of your inspiring example. • Creating opportunities to leverage additional financial resources within and beyond UNT. All of this can be achieved with the following investments: $30,000 | The Mary Ann & Larry Klein Music Endowment (Now) Convert your expendable fund into an endowment and experience the joy of seeing the impact it will have on students in perpetuity. Funding options are available. $30,000 | Estate Gift (Later) Double your impact by adding a legacy gift to the Klein Music Endowment. Bringing the endowment to $60,000 will provide a distribution of roughly $2,400* per year in perpetuity (once fully funded).
*Based on current rates
Tuition for a Texas resident averages about $15,000 per year compared to roughly $28,000 for a nonresident. This translates to a potential $13,000 total value for a nonresident recipient of The Mary Ann and Larry L. Klein Endowed Music Scholarship!
