Support the Edina Chorale!
In this, our twenty-third year, we are again excited about our current concert season, which is explained in detail on the Calendar of Events page. To help support this ambitious schedule, the Edina Chorale is soliciting your financial support. The Chorale’s expenses include salaries of our musical director, accompanist, and assistants; rent for our rehearsal and performance space; payment to musicians who are hired for each concert; music purchases, etc. Last year, our total expenditures for these items was almost $42,000. In the past, some of our needs were filled by generous in-kind gifts. However, because of factors beyond our control, the printing of mailers, tickets, programs, etc. is no longer available to us at no cost. In addition, we have a wish list that includes new risers to stand upon, and a concert shell that will project our sound—things we can’t afford by relying solely on ticket revenues.
No non-professional musical group can survive on ticket revenues alone, and neither can many professional groups. We bring to the entire southwest metro area something to be proud of—something that contributes to a more joyful and more fulfilling way of life. It has been shown that music can truly change lives.
A sampling of music from our past concerts, along with more information about our history, our reason for being and our current concert schedule are posted here on our web site.
We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit, so all donations are tax-deductible. You may send contributions to us at:
The Edina Chorale, P.O. Box 24402, Edina, MN 55424
Thank you in advance for your generous support!
