Support The Tower Chorale

Why Your Support Matters

The Tower Chorale is a volunteer chorus, but the musical experience we offer is anything but casual.

We perform challenging and meaningful repertoire, collaborate with professional instrumentalists and soloists, and maintain a well-organized ensemble that serves both singers and audiences with care and intention. These commitments require resources beyond what ticket sales and member-supported revenue alone can provide.

Community support completes the picture.

Core and member-supported revenue covers most of our annual costs. Community support — including individual donations, fundraisers, and program advertising — sustains the full scope of our concerts, collaborations, and long-term stability.

Ways To Support

Donate

Financial contributions play a vital role in sustaining the musical standards and organizational stability that define The Tower Chorale. Donations help support concert production and professional collaborators, provide essential music and rehearsal resources, and strengthen the operational infrastructure that allows a volunteer ensemble to function at a high level.

Fundraising Events & Community Partnerships

Throughout the season, The Tower Chorale shares concerts, community gatherings, and select fundraising partnerships through our public community calendar. These events support our mission while strengthening local connections.

Shared-revenue days and special events are one of the ways our community can support the Chorale β€” alongside attending performances and participating in events that bring people together through music.

Program Advertising & Sponsorship

Program advertising offers local businesses and community patrons a meaningful way to support The Tower Chorale while reaching engaged concert audiences.

We are happy to work directly with advertisers to discuss options and availability. For current program advertising inquiries, please contact us. info@towerchorale.org.
