Tier Donors
Our Tier Donors and Sponsors are the vital backbone of our organisation. They enable our organisation to grow and reach our potential. If you wish to join this highly valued group of philanthropists, your generosity will be appreciated by many in our local community.
Our Donor Levels have been named after prominent mountains in the Southern Highlands, the highest being Mount Gibraltar at 863 metres. It is an ancient collapsed volcano composed of very hard rock called Gibraltar Trachyte. Locals call it The Gib, and as it's the highest point between the Illawarra Coast and the Great Dividing Range, it's a prominent feature within the Southern Highlands.
We invite you to join Highlands Music Collective as a Tier Donor as we stand at the glorious peaks of these mountaintops, view the great beauty our region offers, and explore an exciting musical journey.
