Honoring the memory and musical legacy of BJ Suter and Angela Gold—two passionate, community-driven artists who embodied the spirit of creativity, connection, and compassion–this fund is intended to provide tuition assistance to a limited number of students who feel they are in need of financial assistance. Created in partnership with eTown, a nonprofit dedicated to music, community, and environmental stewardship, the scholarship supports songwriters seeking to deepen their craft at the renowned Song School in Lyons, Colorado.

We are deeply grateful to the generous donors who made it possible for eight students to attend the 2025 Song School with partial tuition assistance. Your support helped open the door for these musicians to learn, grow, and share their voices in our community.

As we look ahead, we hope to continue expanding the reach of this fund and invite others to join us in making Song School accessible for more students next year. Please consider making a tax exempt donation HERE through eTown. All contributions will go directly towards Song School tuition assistance. Thank you for helping keep the spirit of Song School alive and thriving!

The application window for students to apply for 2026 tuition assistance will open in January 2026.

Through this fund, BJ and Angela’s love for music, mentorship, and connection lives on—nurturing the next generation of performing songwriters.
