This would not be possible without the foresight and contributions of the Ravinia Women’s Board and the funders who have joined them in supporting these programs, including Allstate in its sixth year as Lead Sponsor. The Building the Future of Reach Teach Play campaign is actively raising funds to sustain these programs into the future. We proudly recognize the important contributors to this effort on page 69. Ravinia Steans Music Institute The invaluable instruction and performance opportunities at RSMI are only possible because of our generous, dedicated donors. Each summer, RSMI provides its participants with everything they need—from housing and meals to immersive and personalized professional training with a world-renowned faculty—so they can focus fully on honing their craft. Ravinia greatly appreciates the donors below, who have contributed $300 or more to RSMI’s annual operating fund between October 1, 2021, and June 16, 2022.
