​Ways to Give

The Mr. & Mrs. Sanford N. McDonnell Foundation Matching Endowment 

Through a generous gift agreement, the McDonnell Foundation will match donations to the Robb Musical Trust. We invite you to consider a legacy gift that will help assure the financial future of the Trust.


​John Donald Robb, Jr., Memorial Fund

Gifts in memory of John Donald Robb, Jr., a major contributor to the development of the University of New Mexico Robb Musical Trust, may be designated to the UNM Robb Musical Trust. Following his parents’ deaths in 1989, Robb guided their wishes to establish a unique endowment at UNM. As the first chairman of the Robb Trust Committee, Robb, Jr. dutifully carried out his parents’ wishes, and in subsequent years served in many other capacities as he influenced the growth of the Robb Musical Trust from a small committee to a fully realized Board of Directors with more than 20 members.  He was very active in Trust projects until his death in 2014. 


Grandchildren of John Donald Robb Endowed Fund

Thanks to the efforts of John Donald Robb's grandchildren, the
Grandchildren of John Donald Robb Endowed Fund was established in 2019.
The fund supports the activities of the UNM John Donald Robb Musical Trust.


General Support for UNM Robb Trust Programs and Activities

A donation or legacy gift to the John Donald Robb Musical Trust Endowment Fund at the UNM Foundation will continue to ensure the future of the Trust. Or, you are encouraged to help increase educational outreach and expand annual programming, such as the Composers' Symposium, the biennial international Robb Commission, and the annual John D. Robb, Jr. ¡Música del Corazón! concert at the National Hispanic Cultural Center.

UNM Foundation
