About Us
Our mission is to enrich the lives of BSD7 music students and foster a love for learning music!
BFOM was established in 1985 with the goal of supporting music in the Bozeman Public School District—above and beyond ordinary classroom experiences. Today, with significant changes and decreases to district funding, this original mission is more important than ever! BFOM needs your help to raise funds to support our students and teachers.
BFOM is a 501(c)3, nonprofit organization that serves as the Bozeman Public School’s K-12 music booster club. The organization is completely volunteer-run, from the board of directors to those who help with events, fundraising, and communications. With the community’s help, we donate back an average of $35,000 a year to help our incredible music staff provide unparalleled music education for our kids.
