Virtu Foundation
The Virtu Foundation is a non-profit organization that supports higher level music education with a particular focus on string instruments. It organizes the donation or loan of high quality cellos, violas, and violins to the Foundation, so that they may be loaned to young musicians. The Foundation’s goal is to help young musicians develop advanced musical skills with experience of the use of high-quality instruments they could not otherwise afford.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Why We Exist", Virtu Foundation web site )〕
Instruments are loaned to young musicians on Scholarships. When the terms of Scholarship loans expire, the instruments are placed with new musicians. Over 70 musicians have received such Scholarship loans since the foundation was established.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Scholar Profiles", Virtu Foundation web site )〕 Loans are made on a competitive basis to students from any country who reside in the United States or Canada. Recipients of these Scholarships currently include students at Eastern Carolina University, Eastman School of Music, Juilliard School, New England Conservatory, and Princeton University.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Current Scholars", Virtu Foundation web site )〕

==Scholarship Program==
The instruments are placed as two-year scholarships through periodic competitions. The selection process includes blind evaluations of musical competence, and consideration is given to financial resources, instrument need, and an estimated of the benefit extended use of a better instrument would bring to a musician’s career. The Foundation bears the expense of acquiring or borrowing the instruments, and recipients make semi-annual contributions to a fund that insures that the instruments are well maintained.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title="Scholarship Program", Virtu Foundation web site )〕
