“And now…”

Make a gift to the JMU Marching Royal Dukes Band, the largest, loudest, and proudest ambassadors of JMU.

Over the past 5 decades, MRDs have built a rich legacy — securing the coveted Sudler Award, performing for U.S. Presidents, touring several countries abroad, and becoming a regular favorite at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

As opportunities expand, so does the program’s need for funds. With your gift, we can fund key priorities like:

• New uniforms (approx. $290K)
• Replacement tubas ( $10-$14K each)
• Increased playoff and “Bowl” game appearances
• More national appearances (such as events like the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade)

Every dollar makes a difference.

Give to the JMU Marching Royal Dukes Band and elevate the program for current and future Dukes!

Keep Wearing Purple!
