Dear Friends and Supporters,

We need your help!

The 2024 Elevation Music Festival brought incredible music, art, and culture to our community, and the journey doesn’t end there.

While the festival was a major success, we are still facing significant debt from the event that needs to be paid off to ensure we can continue our mission.

The Elevation Music Festival isn’t just a celebration of music...

It’s a platform for emerging artists, a space for cultural exchange, and a powerful force for community connection.

World Music Development, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit behind the festival, is dedicated to using music as a tool for global impact—promoting peace, unity, cultural awareness, and community enhancement.

The $15,000 debt from this year's festival puts the future of these initiatives at risk.

If we don't cover these outstanding costs, we will have to scale back future festivals and programs that elevate artists and enrich our community, or close the doors at World Music Development all together.

Your contribution will help us continue providing these opportunities for years to come.

We’re asking for your support to help us raise $15,000 by November 1st, 2024, to pay off the remaining debt from the 2024 festival.

By contributing today, you are directly ensuring the future of the Elevation Music Festival and supporting our ongoing mission through World Music Development.

Donate Now to Save the Festival’s Future

Your support can help us keep the festival alive and thriving.

Together, we can ensure that the magic of Elevation Music Festival continues to uplift artists and inspire audiences for years to come.

Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, the 2024 festival was a transformative experience.

Artists from around Colorado came together to share their talent and connect with our community, and we need to finalize the last piece of the puzzle: paying off the event’s costs.

Our goal is to reach at least 1500 people to donate only $10 (less than the cost of 1 meal), which allows us to reach our financial goal quickly.

Will you be one of the 1500 people?

Time is of the essence.

The longer this debt remains unpaid, the harder it will be to plan for future events.

We need to raise $15,000 by November 1st, 2024, to secure the future of the Elevation Music Festival and continue the work of World Music Development.

Donate today and help us continue to bring music, culture, and community together!

We greatly appreciate your support.

Today's featured artist is our favorite bluegrass act, Jack Cloonan Band, retuning for it's third year in a row for Jack Cloonan Bloodies and Bluegrass on Saturday morning 8/17 at 11:00 am on the Bross Stage.

Jack Cloonan grew up on the south side of Chicago, where he learned traditional Irish music by way of his grandfather, Patrick Cloonan. Though accordion was his first instrument at the age of seven, he quickly moved on to fiddle, and eventually tenor banjo, mandolin, guitar, piano, and drums.

This evening our featured artist, RADO , is one of our returning artists from last year that we're excited to see again this year on Friday 8/16 at 7:30 pm on the Bross Stage. In 2019 RADO formed and took up cause in Denver’s prolific music scene. The band melds together ferocious psychedelic rock music with syncopated dance grooves and stylistic melodies, while mixing in thoughtfully crafted lyrical & vocal hooks. The music of RADO is heavily centered around building improvisational jams that reach soaring and everlasting peaks.
