DONATE
Parachute Music is a not-for-profit organisation that supports the people behind the music - songwriters, producers and artists who are building careers in New Zealand’s music industry.
We operate a sustainable model with over half our funding coming from donations and grants. Your donation will directly enable more creatives to access life-changing support, studio time, and a place to call home.
We provide:
Professional studio spaces at heavily subsidised rates.
A community where music creatives can thrive and build lasting connections; reducing isolation.
Mental health support and wellbeing resources tailored to the unique challenges of music professionals.
Studio residencies and mentoring for high-potential creatives establishing themselves in the industry.
If you’d like to support the work we are doing and would like to know more, we would love to show you around, make you a coffee, and share what we do in more detail. You can get in touch with us here.
PARACHUTE FRIENDS
Parachute Friends is a major way you can support us, by signing up to give a monthly donation. Give a little, or give a lot; Parachute Friends help us keep the music playing.
If you sign up to donate $20 or more each month during September, we’ll give you a free Parachute Music tee of your choice, as a way to say thanks.
