Where Your Money Goes
Irving Chorale is mainly funded through the generous donations of our community and fans attending our concerts. These contributions allow Irving Chorale to elevate the art of choral music as well as build a community where music provides the bond that binds us all regardless of age or culture.
Administrative and operational expenses are low compared to similar nonprofits in large part because its Board of Directors is a working Board comprised of experienced volunteers willing to donate their talents. Irving Chorale is proud that 95% of the total expenses go to our artists and production costs related to our music performances. Other resources are used for basic operating expenses such as liability insurance, storage costs for music and equipment, tax preparation and filing, credit card processing fees, etc.
Over the years, Irving Chorale has developed a reputation for using its additional resources to grow the arts in its own backyard. Your gift of any size to Irving Chorale allows us to:
-
Commission works that allow Irving Chorale to collaborate with local arts groups not normally associated with choral music,
-
Offer scholarships to potential members who could not otherwise join Irving Chorale,
-
Provide free performances at community events.
We believe strongly in the power of music to inspire the soul!
